This is my blend I've called Faux Edelstein Aquamarine.

It is an equal parts blend of Edelstein Sapphire and Edelstein Topaz.

Thank you! This is great.

Fountain pens are my preferred COLOR DELIVERY SYSTEM (in part because crayons melt in Las Vegas).

Create a Ghostly Avatar and I'll send you a letter. Check out some Ink comparisons: The Great PPS Comparison 

Don't know where to start?  Look at the Inky Topics O'day.  Then, see inks sorted by color: Blue Purple Brown Red Green Dark Green Orange Black Pinks Yellows Blue-Blacks Grey/Gray UVInks Turquoise/Teal MURKY

From what little I've seen so far mine is quite different from the 'Real' one.

I am going to have to change the name before large men dressed in Pelikan Edelstein Onyx start knocking on my door.

Any suggestions?

I'm reluctant to go for a gemstone in case this happens again. I'm leaning towards Deep Coral Sea Blue.

That is going beside the "I wouldn't have to manage my anger if people would manage their stupidity..." mini poster I got from Ghostplane.

OK, on instruction from Amber (and we all do what our lawyers tell us, don't we?), this ink is now renamed FE Coconut Crab Blue

Amber, how do we change the title and edit the content at the bottom?

That's a beautiful ink. I love it! I don't have either of the "parent" inks, so I won't be able to mix up a small batch, but I think yours is amazing. And I LOVE the name, because I love those huge coconut crab monsters. I would SO make a pet out of one if I could :-).

If you adjust the proportions, I'll bet you could come up with FE PPS. :)

On computer screen, the color looks similar to Pilot Iroshizuku Kon-Peki. Nice color.

 

I was thinking a cross between Kon Peki and Souten.

      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
