Apologies for the bottom bit, the ink smudged very badly and I didn't want to rewrite the whole review again!

When there is harmony in the home, There will be order in the nation. When there is order in the nation, There will be peace in the world. Bhagawan Shri Satya Sai Baba

Great review as usual. Sort of reminds me of a path somewhere between Sherwood and Umber, maybe with a dash of Delamere and Emerald. As much as I like greens, IMO Beethoven would definitely have been the best candidate for red.

Fool me once, shame on you.

Fool me twice; damn

There goes that fox again.

You are very welcome, it is such a pleasure and privilege to share this with everyone. FPN has brought me MUCH joy (and empty wallet moments..) but I wouldn't change a thing!! :roflmho:Oh it will be a joyous addition to your collection! It is making friends with my Diamine Sherwood, Meadow, Kelly, Green-black, Sheaffer Green..... the list is endless! :puddle:

Thank you so much! YES festive is the perfect description! Pine needles and holly! It is a gorgeous green.

Perfect for the Christmas season!

 

Looks like Diamine's really hitting all the right spots with their new ink collection. Lots of the inks remind me of favorite colors from various other brands...so putting them together is like asking me to just buy the whole set. Ah...a customized collection of lovely inks in one gorgeous, convenient package. What could be better? (Besides living in the UK and buying them sooner...)

 

(Hurry up and get here already, January!)

Yes I agree - these are such enchanting colours. January isn't that far away.

great looking samples. i like the vivaldi! thx for sharing!

 

You are most welcome. Vivaldi (have you seen the full review of it?) is lovely and very different to my experience of various purples and violets!

this ink looks like a clone of the MB Irish green

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

      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
