Perfect Time
LeeMing is one of the 713 brands in Inktend's built-in ink catalog.
Paper & pairing
Reds and pinks show the most dramatic shading of any color family — expect real variation between the edges and center of each letter. 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 LeeMing
LeeMing Ink Studio is a small fountain pen ink maker based in Taiwan, with little information published about the company itself. It offers roughly a dozen inks with evocative names such as Coral Sea, Human Face and Perfect Time. The inks are sold mainly through Asian e-commerce platforms like Taobao and AliExpress and a handful of specialty retailers.
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.
