Description Monteverde Blue-Black fountain pen ink is a medium-toned shade of blue-black. The plastic box contains 12 Monteverde fountain pen ink cartridges, which are standard short international size, and will fit most fountain pens that accept international cartridges. 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. Please note that these cartridges will not fit in pens that use proprietary cartridges. Having trouble deciding between colors?
