De Atramentis Tribute To Texas


Morbus Curiositas

Recommended Posts

Hello FPN Friends

 

When I published my Comparison of all De Atramentis Standard Inks last week

 

https://www.fountainpennetwork.com/forum/topic/322431-de-atramentis-comparison-of-all-standard-inks/

 

Our fellow FPN-friend T4TEXAS, who seems to live deep in the heart of Texas, posted the following message

I thought well the best way to really judge the true colour of an ink is to see it in real.

I therefore made the offer to send a postcard writen with their inks of interests to everybody who wants to have a closer look

Houston we've got a Problem

 

To please mr T4Texas I decided to write him a letter using the inks he mentioned, Aubergine (Eggplant), Auburn, Ebony :wub: and, and here Comes the Problem, A blue...

 

.... Oh Yeah Blue but which Blue?

Bright blue, Dark Blue, Murky Blue

 

Fortunately the lovely miss Deatra Mentia started singing to help me here

So sensually singing: "All of me, why not take all of me"

 

So I decided to Salute the Lone Star State with a colourful tribute

Where to obtain De Atramentis Inks

 

Well if you live in Texas or another state of the USA I suggest you have a look at the Goulet Pen Company It is a lovely shop with I believe the largest Ink Collection in the USA

 

https://www.gouletpens.com/bottled-ink/c/14/?sortBy=productName+asc&facetValueFilter=Tenant~Brand%3Ade_atramentis

 

And of Course there always is a branch of Heaven on Earth for Fountain Pen aficionados La Couronne Du Comte

AWESOME

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

      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..
    • A Smug Dill
      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
