Diamine

Diamine is a British writing ink manufacturer, founded in 1864. They make inks with memorably fanciful names, which they sell in 30 ml plastic bottles and 80 ml glass bottles.
Their more popular colours include Writer's Blood, Aurora Borealis, Monboddo's Hat, Onyx Black, Oxblood, and Ancient Copper.
In my very limited experience, their inks are more vivid than Jacques Herbin's, with less shading, and on thinner paper more bleedthrough. They look great, but require chunky paper, at least roughly 100 g/m2.
