Ink Review #1928: Laban Poseidon Green

Laban Poseidon Green is from Laban’s Greek Mythology collection. Thanks to Goldspot for sending this ink over for review!

The color:

Poseidon Green is a bright medium teal.

*For my swab cards I use a Col-o-ring by Skylab Letterpress, a medium Pilot Ishime and a Mabie Todd Swan.

Swabs:

In large swabs on Tomoe River paper the ink has some nice shading.

Writing samples:

Let's take a look at how the ink behaves on fountain pen friendly papers: Rhodia, Tomoe River, and Leuchtturm.

*For my writing samples I use:

• EF Pilot Vanishing Point

• F, M, B Pilot Ishime

• Vintage Mabie Todd Swan (flex nib)

• Rhodia Goalbook

• Taroko Enigma notebooks (68gsm TR)

• Leuchtturm A5

• Pen & Gear Paper from Walmart

Dry time: 40 seconds

Water resistance: Low

Feathering: None

Show through: Medium

Bleeding: None

Other properties: medium shading, no sheen, and no shimmer.

On 20 lb copy paper the ink had some feathering but no bleeding.

Comparison Swabs:

Poseidon Green is a little bit lighter than Papier Plume Lake Michigan Summer. Click here to see the teal inks together.

Longer writing:

I used a Newton Prospector with a broad nib on a Taroko Enigma notebook. The ink had an average flow.

Overall, I really like this color, and it’s well behaved too!
