A beautiful earthy, autumn colour to reflect the season.

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

Is the Terracotta a dark saturated color for the most part? What would be a close comparison? A hearty thanks for the phenomenal reviews you've produced for the 8 new Diamine inks.

Thank you for your kind words and you are most welcome. Terracotta can't be called a dark colour, it is saturated, imagine a vibrant, glistening, burnt orange. It is very close to, but lighter than Diamine's Ancient Copper.

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

Thanks for the response and info. This one is on my list. Going to buy it from Diamine site direct along with the Safari and Blue Velvet. Shipping charge to U.S. is 5 GBP, which isn't bad for three bottles as the ink itself is running less than 7 GBP per bottle. Can't wait until late Dec to Jan. (:

Not in my usual colour range but it is a cracking ink and I might well give it a go sometime.

Ditto. I usually don't like orange inks, but this one might make me rethink....

Thanks for the review, Bhavna.

While you are inked up, mail letters (because your letters are awesome and it allows us to see comparisons). I'm thinking this one begs to be compared to Red Chalk.

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

Create a Ghostly Avatar and I'll send you a letter. Check out some Ink comparisons: The Great PPS Comparison 

Don't know where to start?  Look at the Inky Topics O'day.  Then, see inks sorted by color: Blue Purple Brown Red Green Dark Green Orange Black Pinks Yellows Blue-Blacks Grey/Gray UVInks Turquoise/Teal MURKY

It is lovely and so vibrant! For me however, Ancient Copper rules!

Looks a bit like Montblanc Leonardo Red Chalk.

 

Is that a little more chalky in appearance? I would love a side by side - anyone?

I would love your thoughts when you get some.

I look forward to your comparisons!

Bhavana,

 

...... You set high standards with your earlier reviews and these more than live up to them, thank you. There is something for almost everyone in this new collection. My immediate aspirations are; bottles of Safari and Terrcotta appear in my Christmas stocking. Thereafter I will have a closer look at Canival and Regency Blue once my supply of Diamine Matador and various other darker blues need replenishment.....

 

Regards,

Falcon

Thank you for your kind and encouraging words Falcon. I am delighted the reviews are being received so well. I agree that there is indeed something for all and the fact that the inks are individually available is fantastic. I second the colours you have chosen, but why wait to replenish? B)
