Paper & pairing

Greens read as more expressive than blue or black, a common choice for people who want color without leaving the realm of "still looks professional." 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 Pierre Cardin

Pierre Cardin is a French fashion house founded in Paris in 1950 by the designer of the same name, famous for pioneering large-scale brand licensing that eventually put the name on thousands of products worldwide. Writing instruments are among these licensed goods; in India, Pierre Cardin fountain pens, rollerballs, ballpoints and inks are marketed by Flair Writing Industries, positioning the brand's fashion cachet in the affordable-to-mid-range segment.

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 Vert?
Vert falls into Inktend's greens family based on its typical swatch color.
Does Vert have sheen?
Vert 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 Vert?
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 Vert?
It behaves predictably on most fountain-pen-friendly paper. Stick to something reasonably absorbent-resistant, since cheap copier paper dulls saturation and can feather.
