Silent Grove Collection - Forest Walnut
Paper Tree is one of the 713 brands in Inktend's built-in ink catalog.
Paper & pairing
As a near-neutral tone, it reads as professional and safe for anything from journaling to signatures. 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 Paper Tree
Paper Tree is a family-owned Japanese paper and origami specialty store located in San Francisco's Japantown, run by the Mihara family. Opened in 1968, it sells origami paper, yuzen chiyogami and other decorative Japanese papers, calligraphy materials and stationery, and also hosts origami classes and events.
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.
