Visconti Purple

Pen Boutique was whom I inquired with that advised early this week, so I am checking in with them tomorrow on my lunch. At this time on their website they do not have it.

 

Went by there today on my lunch and was told it'd be two more weeks, so if you are looking to buy from Pen Boutique, I'd look elsewhere if you want it NOW.

Visconti Purple arrived at Fahrney's pens late last week. I picked up up a bottle yesterday.

Hi all,

 

please can anyone tell me if this Visconti purple is the same ink reviewed by Sandy1 here?

http://www.fountainp...lar-production/

 

... To me it does not seem the same color, in the images of the Sandy1 review seems more light/clear than the image published from Koribas!

 

What is the real apparence of this colour, is a dark purple ink or a light purple?

Thanks

Go back a page in this thread and you will see Sam Capote's scan of the same ink....different machines at work....

I bought a bottle in person at Art Brown today but have not had a chance to play with it yet, so I'm relying on the good work of Sam's review above to assure me that it's worth the purchase. AB looked to have only a couple more bottles on the shelf, so time is ticking if you're desperate for the stuff.

Just ordered two more bottles from Bertram's Inkwell...in stock now....but is not on website as yet.

There's some discussion about this on this thread - Cult Pens are now stocking a Visconti Purple, but it doesn't seem to match up to the hoped for vibrancy so far. The colour of the bottle I got certainly doesn't seem to be the same as the reviewed ink. Somewhat disappointing.

how water resistant is this ink
