- Drying: slightly slow
- Character: vintage, earthy and distinctive
- Type: dye-based writing ink
- Bottle: 50ml glass
A colour with character
Goldgrün sits between olive, moss and old gold. It looks like ink on an antique map or a forgotten botanical journal, which makes it a favourite for nature notes, sketching and vintage-style letters.
Shading that shows
Because it is less saturated than many inks, Goldgrün pools at the end of strokes and lightens in the middle, giving handwriting depth and movement. Broad and stub nibs show this best.
Writing tips
- Use smooth, fountain-pen-friendly paper to show off its shading
- Try it with wetter nibs for richer colour
- Allow a little extra drying time
Rohrer & Klingner heritage
Since 1892, this German ink maker has blended classic colours with modern performance, and Goldgrün is one of its most distinctive greens.
Frequently asked questions
Is it water resistant?
No, it is a standard writing ink.
Is it suitable for dip pens?
Yes, R&K writing inks are made for fountain pens, dip pens and calligraphy tools.
Pen pairing ideas
Try Goldgrün in a broad or stub nib on cream paper for a wonderfully antique look, or in a brass or wooden pen whose warm tones echo the ink.
