This ink reminds me of home and the biomes at the Eden Project in Cornwall Uk. So pretty! And emeralds...

If there is righteousness in the heart, There will be beauty in character. If there is beauty in character, There will be harmony in the home. 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

This isn't a bad green at all, and I'm not being facetious! A bit similar to Sherwood Green in a way but a classic and if I were to use no other 'green' I reckon it would be this one.

Not a green to my taste, but thanks for the review nonetheless. Seeing inks I *don't* want is as useful (and better for my wallet) than inks I *do* want.

Of course, these are the kinds of greens that I adore! Thanks for this review! See my other posts for the begging for letters.

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

I TG quite different from Sherwood. My first thoughts were Sherwood and/ or Beethoven, but all fabulously unique and individual.

Glad it helped either way.

It is fine, but not an ink that really speaks to me. I do think it is pretty in the title.

I like the richness in the title and I can only apologise for the images, they don't do this ink justice!

You would never bore anyone. Your feedback is always edifying.

This ink seems to be available only in the UK, not the US.

At least I have not found a US dealer with it...yet.

Hi it is on its way to the US. There is another thread by a US dealer awaiting stock shortly. If not you can order from Diamine direct via email.

      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

      There is still chemistry for processing regular chrome (positive) films like Kodak Ektachrome and Fuji Velvia, but Kodachrome was a completely different and multistep beast.

      Ah, but how to get it processed - that is the question. I believe that the last machine able to run K-14 (Kodachrome processing) ceased to operate some 15 or so years ago. Perhaps the film will be worth something as a curiosity in my estate sale when I die. 😺

      Take a lot of photos!   If the film has deteriorated or 'gone off' in any way, you can use that as a 'feature' to take 'arty' pictures - whether of landmarks, or people, or whatever.
