Golden Lapis Blue Ink - 50ml Bottle (Special Edition by Pelikan)

The Pelikan Edelstein Moonstone ink has received mixed reviews from customers. Some users appreciate the color and texture of the ink, particularly when used with a fountain pen or drawing pen. They find the gray tone to be soft yet intensifying with subsequent passes, creating pleasing shading and tonal effects in writing or drawing. However, there is an adjustment period required as the subtle color initially gives the impression of poor pen performance. A comparison is drawn to the color produced by a Staedtler HB pencil, making it an appealing option for those who like the gray color. Overall, some customers find the purchase satisfactory. On the other hand, some users feel that, given the high price, the Moonstone ink does not live up to their expectations of a luxury product. They find the color to be dull and uninteresting, lacking in contrast and coverage. In comparison to other Pelikan inks, particularly the 4001 series, this Edelstein ink is perceived as watery and not providing smooth pen gliding on paper. In summary, the Pelikan Edelstein Moonstone ink elicits a range of opinions, including positive remarks about its color and texture when used with specific pens, alongside dissatisfaction with its perceived lackluster nature and performance, particularly given its high price as a luxury product. **
