Wonderful review. Told me what I wanted to know are showed off the ink with flair. I just got my bottle of it in the mail and have not inked a new pen with it yet. Can't wait! getting a bunch of converters so I can change easily. You are making me impatient with your great assessment of Bleu Myosotis.

Thank you! Usually I'm not a fan or, or even attracted to in the least, pale blues... but this one is rather ethereal in a dreamy sense. I really like this one as presented here.. I'll grab a sample to test.

My heart skipped a beat when I saw this. I normally avoid blue like the plague, unless it's got a grey sort of shimmer to it. But this shade is beautiful. Definitely an ink to covet (and include on strategically left-around-the-house Christmas lists... it's never too early). Thanks for the review!

The Llama is a woolly sort of fleecy hairy goat, with an indolent expression and an undulating throat; like an unsuccessful literary man.

Just got a sample of this last week from the ever-fabulous Goulets. I cannot say enough how beautiful this ink is to me. That delicate blue-purple is perfect for journaling. I don't know that it has the "gravity" required for when I notarize documents (but I've got Pelikan blue-black for that), but it is by far my favorite ink color so far.

very good ink, I used it two years ago in my sheaffer balance and it had an outstanding ink flow.

Pens are like watches , once you start a collection, you can hardly go back. And pens like all fine luxury items do improve with time

      On my second trip to Japan in seven months, while the going is good

      Oh to have that translucent pink Prera! @migo984 has the Oeste series named after birds. There is a pink one, so I’m assuming Este is the same pen as Oeste.    Excellent haul. I have some Uniball One P pens. Do you like to use them? I like them enough, but don’t use them too much yet.    Do you or your wife use Travelers Notebooks? Seeing you were at Kyoto, I thought of them as there is a store there.

      It's not nearly so thick that I feel it comprises my fine-grained control, the way I feel about the Cross Peerless 125 or some of the high-end TACCIA Urushi pens with cigar-shaped bodies and 18K gold nibs. Why would you expect me or anyone else to make explicit mention of it, if it isn't a travesty or such a disappointment that an owner of the pen would want to bring it to the attention of his/her peers so that they could “learn from his/her mistake” without paying the price?

      Why nobody says that the section of Tuzu besides triangular shape is quite thick. Honestly it’s the thickest one among my many pens, other thick I own is Noodler’s Ahab. Because of that fat section I feel more control and my handwriting has improved. I can’t say it’s comfortable or uncomfortable, but needs a moment to accommodate. It’s funny because my school years are long over. Besides this pen had horrible F nib. Tines were perfectly aligned but it was so scratchy on left stroke that collecte

      My notes and advice on fountain pen cleaning

      By inkstainedruth · Posted

      @asota -- Yeah, I think I have a few rolls in my fridge that are probably 20-30 years old at this point (don't remember now if they are B&W or color film) and don't even really know where to get the film processed, once the drive through kiosks went away....  I just did a quick Google search and (in theory) there was a place the next town over from me -- but got a 404 error message when I tried to click on the link....  Ruth Morrisson aka inkstainedruth
