Paper & pairing

As a near-neutral tone, it reads as professional and safe for anything from journaling to signatures. This ink will behave predictably on most fountain-pen-friendly paper. Cheap, highly absorbent paper (standard copier paper) will dull any ink's saturation and can cause feathering or bleed-through with wetter nibs.

About Nemosine

Nemosine was an American value-oriented fountain pen brand best known for the affordable Singularity and Fission models with interchangeable nibs. The brand was wound down at the end of 2019 when its owners shifted to US-made pens and inks, and it was effectively rolled into the Birmingham Pen Company.

Storing and using the bottle

Bottled fountain pen ink has an effectively long shelf life when kept capped and out of direct sunlight: most inks remain usable for years. The main risk isn't the ink spoiling, it's a pen sitting inked and unused for weeks: that's what causes clogs, not the ink's age.

Frequently asked questions

What color family is Moon Crater Black?
Moon Crater Black falls into Inktend's blacks & greys family based on its typical swatch color.
Does Moon Crater Black have sheen?
Moon Crater Black is not typically noted for sheen. If you want that effect, browse similarly colored inks tagged with sheen in the ink library.
How should I store a bottle of Moon Crater Black?
Years, easily, as long as it stays capped and out of direct sunlight. The thing that actually shortens an ink's usable life is sitting unused inside a pen, not sitting on a shelf.
What paper works best with Moon Crater Black?
It behaves predictably on most fountain-pen-friendly paper. Stick to something reasonably absorbent-resistant, since cheap copier paper dulls saturation and can feather.
