Green
Dollar is one of the 713 brands in Inktend's built-in ink catalog.
Paper & pairing
Greens read as more expressive than blue or black, a common choice for people who want color without leaving the realm of "still looks professional." This ink will behave predictably on most fountain-pen-friendly paper. Cheap, highly absorbent paper (standard copier paper) will dull any ink's saturation and can cause feathering or bleed-through with wetter nibs.
About Dollar
Dollar Industries was founded in Karachi, Pakistan, in 1954, when Mohammad Siddiq began formulating and producing fountain pen inks in the city's old town. The company grew into one of Asia's leading writing instrument and stationery manufacturers, exporting to more than 50 countries, and is best known among enthusiasts for its very inexpensive piston-filling fountain pens.
Storing and using the bottle
Bottled fountain pen ink has an effectively long shelf life when kept capped and out of direct sunlight: most inks remain usable for years. The main risk isn't the ink spoiling, it's a pen sitting inked and unused for weeks: that's what causes clogs, not the ink's age.
