Founded in the US in the mid 90s, Private Reserve began as a small family-run company, but their inks soon made them famous among fountain pen fans and ink geeks. Their experimental approach to ink earned them a strong following among those who wanted something a bit different.
The fact that they supply empty cartridges and filling kits tells you they’re aiming at people who want to play with their inks, loving the ink just as much as the pen.
Alongside the usual range of colours, Private Reserve also makes less common types like pigmented fountain pen inks and shimmering inks, but also even more special inks made for fast drying, and inks made to not dry out when you leave your pen uncapped.
