Iroshizuku Tsutsuji (Azalea -Deep Pink)

Recommended Posts

This is another of the 17 available Iroshizuku inks that I did not see a review of. This seems to be what I would call a "Royal Pink" if there could be such a color of royalty. It shades a lot darker if you use a heavier flowing nib. Obviously a color like this is not for everyone, but if you have the Pink Lamy Safari pen, this is your ink. I had fun doing this review!

With the new FPN rules, now I REALLY don't know what to put in my signature.

I love, love, love this ink and yes, it is in my pink Lamy Safari. The combination is a bit bright B) but lovely.

Like your review and I agree, it cannot possibly compare.

As you can see from my icon thingy to the left, I like bright pink.

Nice!. :embarrassed_smile: Well, i'd like to see it compared to Diamine's Scarlet, Diamine's Cerise and Herbin's Rose Cyclamen. Lovely color. Thank you for the review.

Nice review, thanks.

And how can this be, because he is the Kwisatz Haderach.

I just received my beautiful bottle of Iroshizuku Tsutsuji ink today, my very first Iroshizuku purchase but definitely not my last. This azalea pink ink is truly amazing and I've already put it in my pink Lepine Indigo Murano. Now, as soon as I get my pink Montegrappa Micra this gorgeous fluid is definitely going to be its signature ink! Totally awesome! And great review, Sam, thanks!

 

Oh, and by the way, I did compare it with the Diamine Scarlet and the Tsutsuji leans toward the bluish pink while the Scarlet leans more toward the oranger side of pink (if that makes any sense at all).

Tsutsuji=pink

Scarlet =pink

      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
