Fast shipping, got 2 extra samples (total 14), all interesting inks, and a personal note from David.
I haven't tried anything, yet, but I'm very excited. One vial did spill in transit, so I'm a little sad about that.
I ordered these with the Reddit discount- I love samplers, as I am not diligent enough to go through whole bottles ;).
This was an amazing sampler wit brands I have not tried before- shipping was quick, and I got a myriad of colors! This is a fantastic way to find wet/shimmer/sheening/dry inks and each vial is enough to try with your favorite pens.
Best ink samples in the business ❤️
Bottle and Plume never disappoints with their mystery samples! Great variety, quality brands, and well packaged every time.
A great range of color and brand, and it arrived so quickly! There were two extra surprise gifts as well as a note handwritten with one of the inks! I’ll definitely be ordering again once I’ve worked through these!
I received inks from companies I never tried before. They were packaged well. No leaks in transit. I actually liked the diversity of the color range.
Perfect starter gift to love or fuel creativity!
Such beautiful colors of inks
Great colors & I love that they are 3ml.
I wish I could use ink faster to buy more of these - the variety is great and it's so much fun to discover inks I wouldn't have thought to try!
Great box with lots of colors to try! Can't wait to order another and see what other surprises I get.
I love the box! I got so excited to finally try some new inks it felt like eternity till the box came in but it was super fast!
I absolutely love all the ink so far that I have tested. Everything is labeled well so I can keep track of what ink I would want to buy in the future. I also received a lovely hand written note as well and I believe a freebie ink sample as well! Really appreciate the personal touches from my order. It made it feel very special!
This isin't the first sampler box I have ordered and it won't be the last! Each box is always packed with care and intention and arrived with no leaks. The ink colors are absolutely stunning and so much fun to get to try so many new inks in my pens. The handwritten note with my order was also so thoughtful!
Second order of these and blown away again, 3 of the inks were on my list of inks to try and there are many I've never heard of or would have never thought to try! And as always fantastic customer service and packaging, David has truly got the workings of an upcoming major player in the fountain pen space. He's made a dedicated customer out of me. Now what to do with all these inks...
What a joy to try out so many inks! There was some shimmer, sheens and permanent inks to explore. Highly recommend especially if you are on the hunt
for that new ink.
My friend is delighted with his samples! The nice note was a friendly gesture that he appreciated. And he got a surprise fountain pen as well! His daughter is delighted! Great gift idea!
I received 12 very interesting inks in this box, along with a hand-written note thanking me for supporting a small business (and a bonus gift which was wholly unexpected and appreciated!) I will definitely be shopping here again!!
Lovely selection of Inks I would not have thought to buy or try. Will be getting a full bottle of one as I like the color and sheen combo of Octopus Fluids Witch.
The sampler box featured popular inks that I've heard about but haven't tried. I was surprised and excited to also receive a Diamine UK-only released ink, Honey Pot! This sampler box introduced me to Octopus Fluids and I'm considering purchasing a few colors now.
Great customer support
Excellent variety of inks in a well thought out range of colors
Great sampler box! There were some inks I'd heard of but hadn't tried yet, but also some inks that were complete unknowns - I never even knew they existed. I'm looking forward to trying them all. There was a nice little surprise as well...
This is an awesome selection variety of samples! I haven’t tried them all yet but I’m definitely looking forward to it.
Well, that’s fun! Three colors I already had samples of, but I have a lot of samples, and the rest were ones companies or inks I hadn’t heard of and probably would never have tried.
I ordered this a couple of months ago and absolutely loved it. There was a great selection of colors, some permanent inks, my first iron gall inks! There were a few brands that I have not tried before and colors I wouldn't have purchased for myself. Generous samples and I even received a free sample. They were packaged beautifully and included a handwritten note.
I loved it so much that I recently purchased another set that will arrive soon.
I prefer writing with sample inks over bottles of ink because there are so many gorgeous inks to try and I don't want to limit myself just yet.
I will definitely be purchasing my ink here for 2026.
The samples I received were of great variety in both color and properties that were packaged with care. As a bonus, it happened to included several inks that I have considered trying. The only hard part is deciding which one to use first!
Excited to try out all of these inks! Good variety of colors and brands.
Awesome group. Lots of different colors. Some I never would have considered but was pleasantly surprised. More volume in the samples than other grab bag samples I have purchased.
