Noodler's Squeteague Fountain Pen Ink — 3 oz
The squeteague is a sea trout of Narragansett Bay, and this ink carries its blue-green shadow: a dark teal that sits just short of black in a fine nib and opens toward green where the line widens. Like water at dusk, it is a color that looks best in person.
The ink flows well even in inexpensive pens and shades gracefully on everyday paper, qualities that have made it a favorite among readers. Its name looks to the waters near the Massachusetts home of Noodler’s founder, making it a regional color in the truest sense. For a companion in sea-dark blue, see Noodler’s Aircorp Blue-Black.
