This ink is simply amazing. It has good properties, nice flow, elegant shading and stunning color. I don't expect anything more from ink.



Take a look:

Thanks for a very nice review. It's a beautiful ink. I received a sample of this a couple of weeks ago and really like it. Very well behaved and similar to Noodlers BSIAR, without the black edge shading. I will be glad when this becomes available in the U.S.

Where is the difference between having our arms in possession and under our direction, and having them under the management of Congress? If our defense be the real object of having those arms, in whose hands can they be trusted with more propriety, or equal safety to us, as in our own hands?" Patrick Henry

Very nice! Thank you. I like the ribbon.

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

Thank you for this beautiful review. I agree: this ink has fantastic properties and an elegant and useful colour. I have had it in rotation since it came out.

I always enjoy your reviews.

I am no longer very active on FPN but feel free to message me. Or send me a postal letter!

I think this ink has made the short list of "need to try -- soon".... :drool:

Thanks for the review.

      Thanks for the info (I only used B&W film and learned to process that).   Boy -- the stuff I learn here!  Just continually astounded at the depth and breadth of knowledge in this community! Ruth Morrisson aka inkstainedruth

      >Well, I knew people who were photography majors in college, and I'm pretty sure that at least some of them were doing photos in color,<   I'm sure they were, and my answer assumes that. It just wasn't likely to have been Kodachrome.  It would have been the films I referred to as "other color films." (Kodachrome is not a generic term for color film. It is a specific film that produces transparencies, or slides, by a process not used for any other film. There are other color trans

      @Ceilidh -- Well, I knew people who were photography majors in college, and I'm pretty sure that at least some of them were doing photos in color, not just B&W like I learned to process.  Whether they were doing the processing of the film themselves in one of the darkrooms, or sending their stuff out to be processed commercially?  That I don't actually know, but had always assumed that they were processing their own film.

      Kodachrome 25 was the most accurate film for clinical photography and was used by dermatologists everywhere. I got magnificent results with a Nikon F2 and a MicroNikkor 60 mm lens, using a manually calibrated small flash on a bracket. I wish there were a filter called "Kodachrome 25 color balance" on my iPhone camera.
