Hello All!
Private Reserve has changed the color of their Gray Flannel.
They are unable to receive one of the ingredients to make the color. They have re-formulated the ink and the current offering is similiar, but not the same.
The re-formulated ink has a greenish-tint to it, both in the bottle/ink cartridges.
It writes as a gray color ink, but not the original light gray color.

I have attached an example written on Rhodia 80g paper. Currently in stock!

Didn't a bad batch of GF a couple years ago write a bit green?

I like the color but its not grey. Maybe a silly question but is grey a difficult colour to make?

 

Here's an interesting video :)

First.. im really late seeing this. I have been crazy busy. like really... crazy...

second... i love Beethovens Mondscheinsonate.

And last but not least. what great gradual colours in this. pretty. but a real standard grey should not be so hard. it is just the hint of tone in it that makes it so specially yours,

I found that it went down a greenish hue but turned to a very neutral/blackish grey as it dried.

I am not seeing a video. Am I going mad? (Please say no)

Anyone like Ray Bradbury? Please read "The Laurel and Hardy Love Affair" if you have about 12 minutes.

 

You will not forget this wonderful gem that is largely obscure and sadly, forgotten. http://bit.ly/1DZtL4g

      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
