You can't imagine. Many Chinese young girls just love these kind of unsaturated pastel colours. Also they are crazy for the light green turquoise colours like JH Diabolo menthe and Vert reseda. Can you imagine the most popular Bung Box ink here being the June Bride one? Absolute horror!

 

 

Aaaaaaaaaargh.

 

May God have mercy upon their troubled souls...Although it may be too late.

 

I thought it was the color that sold one bottle a year, and even this one only because of pity.

 

 

You two made me laugh out loud!

As is my custom, I never look at reviews before a purchase, only afterwards (YES, I know that makes no sense, but I want to come to an ink without prejudice), so I do have a nice big bottle of Kitano Pearl Silver. Me, who loves deeply saturated inks...

 

I will give it a try in a very wet pen, and perhaps do a little mixology. ;)

I have a CRV sheet with the title "Hall of shame" and there's Miles Davis Blue and Tundra Green on it. I will send it to your for more input...

All my inks, with ink splash and links to my reviews

A quick image of the Kobe #53 Pearl Silver, and the only other ink that I have that makes for a nice comparison: de Atramentis Frankincense.

 

I have to say that I like the silvery pearl look of the ink.

      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..

      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
