Anyone know of a link? I'm having a heck of a time finding out what these inks look like - any help is appreciated. I did see TNS' Omas Sepia review but am looking for other colors as well...specifically the Omas Grey a few have recommended. Thanks smile.gif

Thank you! It's exactly what I was looking for and I've bookmarked it for safe keeping biggrin.gif

It seems that the grey has changed over the last 10 years...hmmmm, I wonder what the 2006 batch really looks like laugh.gif

I think the Omas gray I have is from the "new" batch--I bought it maybe four months ago, and it's in the new bottle. But it looks like the first sample on the page, at least on my monitor. I don't see any brown or purple tones at all--it's very silvery. But maybe it varies from bottle to bottle?

Thanks, Karen - that's good to know, especially since I just ordered a bottle smile.gif I'm attracted to the silvery properties in it. It was that or the Sailor grey that really caught my eye. We'll see in a few days when it gets here. Thanks for your input biggrin.gif

Hi Kelly, I hope you like the Omas gray! Although after reading all the other suggestions, now I'm tempted by the J. Herbin gris nuage... rolleyes.gif

Hi Kelly,

I recently received a snail with a number of grays. (Since you've ordered some) I think you'll be pleased to know that I thought the Omas was the most attractive of them all.

Best,
Ann
