Thanks to Immoteus for this review on J. Herbin Rose Tendresse. I have been looking for a good clear "hot pink" shade of pink. This looks like it's as close as I may be able to find. I would rather not have any hint of purple to the pink if at all possible and this one does seem to have just a slight tinge of lavender. If anyone happens to know of any other very clear, bright pink inks I'd love to find out about them.

Immoteus, thanks very much for your review. I agree this looks like a lady's ink. I've just tried to send you a PM to ask if you'd like to swap for some Visconti green. I couldn't send it, because a notice popped up that said "this member cannot use the messaging system". (Not an exact quote.)

 

If you're not interested in Visconti green, I'm sure someone else would make you a trade!

 

Ladyinthemists, Sheaffer pink, which comes in cartridges is a hot pink.

 

You can get it at Hobby Lobby, if you've got one near you, and use a 40%-off coupon.

May you have pens you enjoy, with plenty of paper and ink. :)

Have you considered Diamine Scarlet? I bought a bottle for my daughter to go w/ her new Lamy Pink Safari.

Thanks, Gran, I do have a Hobby Lobby near me. I'll definitely go by there to find the Sheaffer pink and try it out. Do you recall which department I should look for to find fountain pen ink?

I may have to look into the Lamy Pink Safari. I bought the J. Herbin Rose Cyclamen in hopes that it would be a really good pink but it is a bit too much on the lavender side to be a really bright, clear pink. I still like the Rose Cyclamen as a great rose/lavender ink though.

Rose Cyclamen is a hot bubble gum pink in my pens. Rose Tendresse is less intense and more baby pink, if you allow me the description. Hope it helps.

Look for the discontinued levenger pinkly.

The Sheaffer cartridge inks are on the pegboards in the drawing section, near the calligraphy inks. Hobby Lobby also sells Skrip black in bottles. Good use of a 40 % coupon there, if one wants Skrip black.

 

Sometimes there are Sheaffer cartridges on the end section in clearance.

Thank you all for the compliments, I have returned from a short hiatus from FPN. And during that time I disabled my PMs, if anyone wishes to reach me my email is Immoteus at gmail dot com

 

Gran, I apologize but the sample is not unavailable because I traded my vial of Rose Tendresse shortly after posting this review.

      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
