Ink Review: Pr Plum

[ladyambrosia]

I also have it at the Ink Rack.

 

This was my first shot at a PR ink and of course because I love wet ink I had to get the Plum, I have been told the Tanzanite was even wetter but the jet pens was out of it when I ordered. So here is the lovely PR Plum. I love it. Over all the ink behaves very well on my paper it is a deep rich saturated color with a lovely wet line. I can see no feathering or bleed through. I have some small showing through on the otherside of the notebook page but nothing that would keep one from using both sides of the page. Plum doesn't have a large amount of shading, but there is some subtle work. Because of how wet the ink is the dry time is a bit slow but I think on the right paper it would be great for a left hand writer or just one who is careful. Make sure to keep this one away from water it does not like it at all.

Hi! Nice to see you popping in again.

 

This colour is so lovely - when I first got it I wrote everything with it because I loved it so much. Still do but now have lots of other colours that need a turn too. It's a pretty intense colour and can show through a bit on the paper but who cares when it's this pretty? It's very, very nice in an italic or stub nib too and has a wee bit more shading then as well.

This is the next ink on my 'To Buy' list! Got a letter in last week from a snailee who'd used this and was entranced by the beautiful shading .... think it was from an italic nib.

 

Just waiting for The Writing Desk to get more stocks in - are you listening, Martin??

Karin thank you I have actually been very very very sick lately. But I am finally starting to feel a bit better. I really do love this color I have written several letters lately in it. I have lots of purples but this one is always on my to go to list...along with the Ebony Purple. Happy ebony purple goes on my old fashioned letters of fiction letters.

 

bbs you will love this color you really really will.
