Chestnut - Seitz-Kreuznach


visvamitra

Recommended Posts

Seitz-Kreuznach is a german based ebay seller. Some time ago he/they came up with their own line of inks. The inks have great value and are offered in cartridges and bottles (0,68 fl oz).

There are few colors in the line:

  1. Arctic Blue
  2. Chestnut
  3. Dark Orchid
  4. Flamingo Pink
  5. Navy
  6. Neon Yellow
  7. Pacific Blue
  8. Palm Green
  9. Panthers Black
  10. Tomato red

Chestnut is decent brown ink. I enjoy the color and I would say th ink has good properties although it will feel dry if you write with Sailor or Noodler's inks on daily basis. It lacks lubrication a little bit.

Thank you Cyber6 for sending me samples of these inks.

Thanks yet again for a fine review.

That's a nice looking brown. I like the shading, and that it looks different on different papers (sepia-toned on some, warmer on others).

Thanks for the review (although my wallet doesn't...).

Wonderful review, thank you. I was drawn to this ink because I didn't live far from Bad Krueznach :) So I was curious.

Again, another nice one. Thank you for the reviews, I am looking for a good brown. The options in Ottawa is limited, so finding a good brown is high on my shopping list. eBay is my friend and I might have to get this and the tomato red.

      Awesome! I'm in the process of preparing my bag for our pen meet this weekend and I literally have none of the items you mention!! I'll see if I can find one or two!

      @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.
