More nerdy info:
These are brand new Schneider Standard International Ink Cartridges, pack of 6, made in Germany. These will fit all brands pens from 60s to present which use the Standard International size. These short size cartridges fit all pens, regardless if the pen uses a long size cartridge. That is because many pens that use the short size ink cartridge cannot use the long one as there is not enough barrel length. Hence if you are not sure which length cartridge your pen uses, long or short, it's always safer to go with the short cartridge. Schneider is one of the largest ink and refill producers in Europe, manufacturing highest quality products all made in Germany. The ink in these cartridges has great flow, consistency and viscosity, easy to clean as its water based, does not stain the pen or react chemically with its parts if left inside even for decades. 

Tip:
What type of cartridges use different pen brands?
Some of the manufacturers that use these Standard International cartridges are: Montblanc, S.T. Dupont, Cartier, Reform, Senator, Pelikan, Kaweco, Faber-Castell, Rotring, Omas, Waterman, Diplomat, Montegrappa, Caran d'Ache, Visconti and others. Keep in mind that this is not always the case as there some periods and some models of each manufacturer that uses their own specific type of cartridges or different standard cartridges.

For example, Sheaffer uses their own type of cartridge on some pens (mostly vintage), and Standard International on other Sheaffer pens, mostly newer types. Hence, it is always good to have and keep at least one original cartridge from your fountain pen for future reference.

Some of the manufactures that DO NOT use the Standard International size ink cartridges, i.e. they use their own format are: Lamy, Aurora, Cross, Pilot, Platinum, Parker and others.
