PROS 

  • Bottle is easy to fill from.
  • Interesting, attractive shade. 
  • Bottle is tinted to save your ink from UV exposure. It also comes in a box, making it easy to stack.
  • Pretty easy to clean.
  • Pretty well-behaved.
  • Has a wee bit of water resistance.
  • Easy to store on your shelf in the box.

CONS

  • Each bottle is wrapped in plastic wrap. I realize this is likely to prevent leaking but it feels wasteful to me.
  • If you use this in a very wet application, it can take a long time to dry and remain a little smudgy. 
  • KWZI inks have a particular smell - some describe it as vanilla. Myself, I do not like it at all. I suffer the smell for the joy of their colors. Fortunately, the smell does not linger on the page, but I feel I must warn you in the event that you find smelly inks off-putting. 

OVERALL

Another interesting shade from KWZI. Green Gold is a perfect name - it's a nice cross between the two colors. Pretty well-behaved, looks great in a flex nib! However, I do prefer the Old Gold from last week over this one. 




I received this item/these items free of charge for the purposes of this review. I was not compensated monetarily for my review. Everything you've read here is my own opinion.
