This is not fountain pen related, but can anyone identify what type of refill this could be? I acquired a pen that was my great grandmothers.
From searching myself, I came across a Schneider Express G1?
The pen has no markings, neither does the refill.
Some blue-green ink for your viewing pleasure. 😁

Just started to swatch again all my fountain pen inks. This time using the new Canopus notebook from Yamamoto. My new project. 😄
If you’re looking for excellent fountain pen friendly paper:
Iroful (makes ink color pop on the page)
Midori MD
Maruman
Tomoe River 52gsm/68gsm
👌
😍
I know that komorebi stationery and odyssey have notebooks that use the Tomoegawa paper.
Next inks ready to be swatched.
Ahhh one of the best things about fountain pens! All the different, expressive line variations you can achieve!
I will say it is very addicting once you’ve written with a custom ground nib for the first time 😍
The nib on the Schon DSGN is a multicolor Monoc nib. A nib they produce in house. Amazing to write with. This one is a Fine, with a large, wet expressive grind on the reverse!
😁

Fountain pen haul from the San Francisco Pen Show last weekend. We met so many friendly people, talked pens and stationery, and had such an amazing time.

I honestly feel at times I am more addicted to the inks than the pens lol.
Ahhh welcome! 😁
Here is a video of more lovely Red-Violet inks to further your “exploration” 😊
The one I use is from J. Herbin. It is beginner friendly for sure, as it is the first one I regularly use for testing inks. Puts down a nice fine line, but not too fine I’d say. Definitely fun to use. 😊
The only Wearingeul ink I have and used is Siddartha, which is a beautiful rich yellow-orange with a hint of red.
But,..if you really want a vampire vibe blood red, Diamine Red Dragon is the one.
If you want some tooth to your journal Midori MD is the choice. Exquisite paper with just the right feedback. 👌
Which one is your favorite Red-Violet??

I have a M. Cursive Italic of his on a Franklin-Christoph. It’s such a joy to use. I have never used a Kodachi though….
I was so pleasantly surprised with this Medium nib on the Kaweco Skyline Sport Sea Spray. It is so smooth with just a tiny hint of feedback. Went with Teranishi Guitar Smoky Navy for the ink. 👌🖊️
Mine is on the way. 😀
What is the color like in person? On the website and videos they have the colors always differ to me. Seems like it’s a darker teal green color?
Newly inked fountain pen day!
With a Medium nib that is just glassy smooth.
Inked with Iroshizuku Fuyu-Gaki
Blue Water Ice Kool-Aid 😂
That is a beautiful pen! 🖊️
Now I must research Maiora 🤩

A notebook with a list of fountain pens and ink blots that are currently in use.
I have been wanting to create this for some time…my Iroful Notebook which will contain my currently inked fountain pens and the inks. I love this ink bottle stamp from @wellappointeddesk.bsky.social
And the Eric Small Things sticker just seals it. ❤️

Fountain pen users, you'll appreciate this: a thoughtful essay on how handwriting with a fountain pen fosters reflection, intention, and a slower, more mindful pace in both writing and life. Worth the read: www.insidehighered.com/opinion/view...
