Title: *not* a fountain pen ink
Review: Two of the missing stars are only for the false labelling: the box/bottle and Higgins' own website say this is an ink suitable for fountain pens. It is, however, a pigment-based ink (bits of suspended particulate matter) rather than a dye (dissolved compounds). Pigments will clog nibs; dip pens can be easily cleaned, but the nibs on fountain pens are more difficult to rid of these tiny clogs. For fountain pens, stick to those inks made just for fountain pens.As for the ink itself: it's quite dark, though not completely midnight pitch black. Feathering is minimal but not totally absent. Used in the correct pen or brush, definitely a good buy for the price; absolutely use it as a normal day-to-day ink... just not in a fountain pen.
