The colors are true to how they appear in the bottle (once any sediment has been properly shaken up and suspended), truly waterproof, no fading. Do note that this is metallic and a light color. On light paper, it can be difficult to see for some.
The ink doesn't run and bleed everywhere, it works with every nib I've tried (quite a range, every modern leonardt, almost every modern speedball, several others), and almost every paper (anything your nib scratches to bits is obviously out of the question). It is a thicker ink than many others you might find--it flows beautifully, smooth without breaks, but you don't want to, say, leave it in a roundhand nib with a reservoir untouched for ten minutes. It is ink. It will dry.
But that just leads me to another plus--it's easy to clean out. Once dry it flakes off nibs at the touch of fingernail, not counting unfortunate grooves. It responds well to nib cleaning solution, abd of course when wet (again, not counting grooves where any ink would get stuck) it wipes right off with paper. I've also found that it come out of my scrap cloth with little effort, but don't go spilling it on your carpet or favorite white shirt and expect it to come out. I just mean that the scrap I use for cleaning isn't darkly or noticeably stained from these.
They also are wonderful in painting, and again waterproof, so you can do things like soaking a drawing in tea to make it appear aged without worrying about losing the drawing.
With metallic inks, because they may have been in storage some time, you may have to go into the bottle with a rod to loosen and mix any sediment that may have collected. Once mixed, though, I find the occasional shake is sufficient before using the inks. I haven't had to go back into any ink to remix settled pigment since I've bought them, so my suspicion is that they have to be completely undisturbed for some time to need rod mixing rather than just shaking.
1. It separates in the bottle. This seems to be standard with gold inks. The ink reincorporates well and doesn't need to be shaken for too long.
2. It's kind of glittery. It's not a chunky glitter, but it does have some sort of glitter in it, as opposed to a straight metallic sheen. This isn't a problem for me, but just something to note.
3. It can kind of be a little streaky if you're going over a large area. Maybe that's just the paper I'm using, but still.
4. It plays nicely with water.
5. If you put an ink over it, it will still show through. I've tried layering sharpie over it and the gold glitter somehow still appears over it?
6. I needed to use a thumbtack to dislodge a chunk of ink from the dropper tool upon first usage.
Images are attached to hopefully show off the ink closer up. None of them are edited, and all are taken under florescent light. Overall, really nice and shiny.
