Paper & pairing
Warm tones (oranges, yellows, ambers) show strong contrast between light and dark areas of each stroke, which is part of why they're popular with broader nibs. 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 Pelle Penna
Pelle Penna is a Japanese pen specialty shop located in Namba City, Osaka, whose Italian name means 'leather (and) pen'. The store stocks thousands of writing instruments from around a hundred brands, including Parker, Pelikan, and Sheaffer, and releases its own limited-edition fountain pens and original inks with names drawn from Italian cities and Japanese motifs.
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.
