Robert Oster Rubine 50ml Ink Bottle
Robert Oster Signature Inks are handmade in Australia. The recyclable PET bottles are manufactured in Australia's first carbon neutral plastics plant. A message from Robert Oster:
"My great interest in fountain pen inks - and by extension, inks that combine many creative applications - began with the birth of my love of fountain pens in 1989. As Robert Oster Signature Inks are quite recent to the market, think of the interim between 1989 and today, as the fertile ground into which my present love of all things ink was seeded and grown.
The contents and packaging of my Inks are all nature friendly and the colors a genuine inventory of the Australian palette. Robert Oster Signature originates from one of the most famous wine producing regions of the world - the Coonawarra district of South Australia...an idyllic setting with great influence on the senses. There is my inspiration. It's a joy to share it with you."
We are authorized retailers for Robert Oster, so this bottle will come directly from the man himself.
I received this ink as a sample from my Inkmiester subscription box for April 2020. I'm not fond of red inks. My experience with the ink is it's a little darker than the photo above. I will probably use it for dip pen practice. That said the color is the only thing I don't like about it. The ink is brilliant otherwise. It flowed from the pen easily but isn't subject to blotches. I could see a teacher or editor loving this ink for marking papers.
Inks look great!
