Paper & pairing
Reds and pinks show the most dramatic shading of any color family: expect real variation between the edges and center of each letter. 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 Rye-Ryu Co. Ltd
RYU-RYU Co., Ltd. is a stationery and paper-goods maker based in Ashiya, Hyogo Prefecture, Japan, established in 1983. Under a license agreement with glassware manufacturer Ishizuka Glass, the company plans and sells the Adelia Retro ink series for fountain pens and glass pens, with colors inspired by the nostalgic Showa-era Adelia Retro glassware designs.
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.
