L'artisan Pastellier Callifolio Olivastre

I think this is one of the best colours of all Callifolio inks. It's not as undersaturated as many others. It writes well enough. The colour is pretty (I'm sure Cyber6 loves it).

It's a match with my Clairefontaine notebook. The camera shows the difference between the two colours, but trust me it's really difficult to tell them apart with my bare eyes. (Photo taken in sunlight)

Thank you for the review. I quite like this one as it looks fairly saturated. :)

 

It's a real shame they don't list it for sale on their web-site, and that they don't answer emails when you ask a question. :(

I finally used another email address and he replied. To order Olivastre you just need to add another ink and say in the comment section that you want Olivastre instead.

I quite like this one, but I find it just a little bit flat. I have a couple of bottles & use one just for mixing.

      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
