As with most Diamine inks, both flow and behave well. As you can see, Meadow has more yellow undertones whilst Apple Glory has blue undertones.

Thank you very much! What scanner did you use? I have had difficulty showing the difference between the two greens. You have done a great job. Also, may I please ask which brown did you use? It is a lovely brown!

Thank you Fuchsiaprincess! I used a Kodak ESP 3250 all in one printer, scanner and copier. I was quite surprised that it managed to pick up the difference and quite pleased with the scan. I used Diamine Macassar in a Lamy Al Star with a fine nib :)

 

PS - you have beautiful hand-writing :thumbup:

 

Thank you so much! That is such a compliment coming from you, as I love your penmanship! :blush:

Thanks for the brief review ...

 

No problem, at all :)

 

Excellent review Vistafan! Early on the Apple Green was suggested for the 2012 green Safari. Then Meadow appeared! It's a very friendly vibrant green.More green, pea green with envy at your beautiful handwriting.More reviews - please.

 

Thank you pen2paper! I think the Apple Glory does match the 2012 Safari well but I prefer Meadow's yellow undertones :) Thank you for the nice comments about my handwriting! :) I hope to post some more comparisons soon.

Beautiful review. I have meadow and kelly green, I was wondering how apple green would compare.

 

Thanks Flake. I hope you find this review useful in gauging the difference between Meadow and Apple Glory.

Apple glory is more subdued than Meadow, but I love the yellow undertones of the latter :)

      I have the Sailor Naginata and some fancy blade nibs coming after 2022 by a number of new workshop from China.  With all my respect, IMHO, they are all (bleep) in doing chinese characters.  Go use a bush, or at least a bush pen.

      It is the reason why I'm so keen on the idea of a personal library — of pens, nibs, inks, paper products, etc. — and spent so much money, as well as time and effort, to “build” it for myself (because I can't simply remember everything, especially as I'm getting older fast) and my wife, so that we can “know”; and, instead of just disposing of what displeased us, or even just not good enough to be “given the time of day” against competition from >500 other pens and >500 other inks for our at

      Agreed.  And I think it’s good to be aware of this early on and think about at the point of buying rather than rationalizing a purchase..

      Alas, one cannot know “good” without some idea of “bad” against which to contrast; and, as one of my former bosses (back when I was in my twenties) used to say, “on the scale of good to bad…”, it's a spectrum, not a dichotomy. Whereas subjectively acceptable (or tolerable) and unacceptable may well be a dichotomy to someone, and finding whether the threshold or cusp between them lies takes experiencing many degrees of less-than-ideal, especially if the decision is somehow influenced by factors o

      I got my first real fountain pen on my 60th birthday and many hundreds of pens later I’ve often thought of what I should’ve known in the beginning. I have many pens, the majority of which have some objectionable feature. If they are too delicate, or can’t be posted, or they are too precious to face losing , still they are users, but only in very limited environments..  I have a big disliking for pens that have the cap jump into the air and fly off. I object to Pens that dry out, or leave blobs o
