Description Monteverde Black Ash fountain pen ink is a deep, dark shade of black that comes in a compact 30ml glass bottle. Monteverde ink is made in Austria, and is specially created with Monteverde's Ink Treatment Formula, which prevents the ink from drying out in your pen. This formula also improves both ink flow and drying time, as well as helping to lubricate and protect the ink feed system from corrosion and clogging. Having trouble deciding between colors?
