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 Seitz Kreuznach

Seitz Kreuznach GmbH was a pen and stationery retailer based in Bad Kreuznach, Germany, led by Georg Seitz. Alongside pens and inks from major makers, it sold its own German-made Seitz-Kreuznach ink line in bottles and cartridges, best known for the affordable "Colors of Nature" series with nature- and wine-themed color names.

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.

Frequently asked questions

What color family is Tundra Green?
Tundra Green falls into Inktend's greens family based on its typical swatch color.
Does Tundra Green have sheen?
Tundra Green is not typically noted for sheen. If you want that effect, browse similarly colored inks tagged with sheen in the ink library.
How should I store a bottle of Tundra Green?
Years, easily, as long as it stays capped and out of direct sunlight. The thing that actually shortens an ink's usable life is sitting unused inside a pen, not sitting on a shelf.
What paper works best with Tundra Green?
It behaves predictably on most fountain-pen-friendly paper. Stick to something reasonably absorbent-resistant, since cheap copier paper dulls saturation and can feather.
