As some of you may know Poland is one of biggest exporter of cosmetics, furniture and fruits. But we also have inks :)



Hopefully more and more inkthusiasts know what the four letters - KWZI - mean. They mean good ink, saturated color. The fruit of the passion.



You can check Konrad's site here.



Brown Pink is complex color I'm not really keen on but I'm pretty sure some will like it.

@C - nah, it won't ;) I've used the sample (around 5 ml) and still find it nice to write with but not so enjoyable in terms of color. Luckily Konrad offers a lot of colors so everyone will find something interesting.

Makes two of us. Thanks, visvamitra, for the review. Based on the swab, I thought I would really like it and now I know I will.

Funny you said that... Konrad told me once (long time ago) that he used to have an ink named "Cherry on Chocolate".. and he doesn't remember why he stop making it, but he was thinking in bring it back. Now, I am wondering if this is "Cherry on Chocolate V2" ... :D

Cherries!

 

I was trying to thinking of what this ink colour reminded me of, and you nailed it.

Thanks for showing us the ink!

 

Just a reminder, reviews of KWZI inks, powdered inks that are no longer made, Scribes inks (limited run) all belong here in Th-Inking Outside the Bottle.

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

I should have gotten this... Now that I see what you can make it do. That looks fabulous, and the name is NOT a good indicator...

Oh well. Live and learn. Next time...

Reminds me a little of Black Swan in English Roses, a current favorite of mine.

Actually, it seems to be a little redder/pink than BSiER, which I found to be disappointingly brown-toned. (As in, really? What about that color said "roses" to ANYONE....? :huh:)

I'm a bit with visvamitra on this one. Not a color family I'm all that enamored of, the burgundies. They tend to be too red to be brown, too brown or purple to be red, and not purple/red-violet enough to make me happy, for the most part. But this one is Not Too Bad for what it is. I like the shading it's getting, but also am not unhappy that this one didn't make my short list on the Group Buy #3.

Thanks for the review. Seeing inks I don't want (or can live without) is often as useful -- and a whole lot better for my bottom line -- than inks I DO want.

SUPER happy with this one. Just the right shade of puce I was looking for. [i always think of Kenneth Anger's experimental film, "Puce Moment" when I see this color!]

 

Great ink!

Another interesting KWZI ink. It reminds of MB Bordeaux.

Reminds me of Private Reserve Black Cherry. I'm with Ruth and Visvamitra...definitely a color I could live without. Great review, though.

Understood; this color is certainly not for everyone. Puce is a very old-fashioned kind of color —popular in the late 19th C and early 20th C— but it's a difficult color to find in such a good quality ink.

Well this is an interesting color! The name is quite fitting and reminds me a little of Tulipe Noire.

      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

      @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
