Overview

Pelikan Edelstein Apricot Achat fountain pen ink, the Ink of the Year 2025, takes its warm orange and golden undertones from the coloring of apricot agate.

Pantone 163C inspired the bright golden-orange shade. For this 2025 edition, Pelikan links the color to creativity, renewal, and optimism, carrying those ideas into the Edelstein collection’s gemstone theme.

Edelstein is German for gemstone, and Achat means agate. A 50 ml glass bottle shaped to recall a cut diamond completes the gemstone theme.

Superbe encre

J'ai acheté cette encre par curiosité et je ne suis pas du tout déçu : la couleur est magnifique et je m'en sers pour écrire, de temps en temps pour prendre des notes, cele qui peut paraître étonnant mais au vu de cette belle couleur abricot, je veux en profiter.
L'encre coule facilement sur le papier et le flacon est très beau.
Un emballage toujours aussi soigné et une livraison très rapide.
Mérite amplement les 5 étoiles 🌟.

Bonjour encore Hervé!

Quel plaisir de lire votre avis ! Vous avez capturé l’essence même de cette encre : une couleur unique ('abricot' est si bien trouvé !) qui donne envie d’écrire… même pour de simples notes !

Nous partageons votre admiration pour ce flacon élégant et cette fluidité sur le papier. Merci d’avoir souligné aussi notre emballage soigné – ces détails comptent autant pour nous que pour vous.

Vos 5 étoiles nous touchent beaucoup. À bientôt pour de nouvelles découvertes colorées !

Chaleureusement,

BE CAREFUL !!

After throughly cleaning my beloved Pelikan lountain pen, a tiny amount of darker ink remained ant the Apricot turned to dark maroon - a very undesirable outcome!
