Paper & pairing
Purples sit at the boundary of professional and playful, one of the more personality-forward choices that still reads clearly on the page. 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 Sailor x Itoya
Sailor x Itoya is a collaboration ink line between Sailor, the historic Japanese fountain pen manufacturer, and Itoya, the famous Ginza stationery store founded in Tokyo in 1904. The Sailor-made exclusive inks are sold through Itoya and include the bar-themed Cocktail Ink series as well as limited editions such as the Disney 100 collection.
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.
