Manufacturers since 1864, Diamine Inks relocated to this purpose built 'state of the art' factory in Liverpool in 1925, where they successfully carried on using the traditional methods and formulas for ink production. Over the years the company has changed hands and are now located close to the world famous Aintree Race Course

If you like somewhat flat rusty browns, Burnt Sienna won’t disappoint you. It performs fairly well but the hue does little to me. The ink is maybe more watery than other Diamine inks.

Thanks for your interesting, thorough review.

 

The color reminds me of the 1950s and its obsession with tertiary tones. I like its capacity for shading.

I like it, but don't know that I would write with it much. Thanks for the review.

It always seemed a little pink to me.

 

Thank you again for a wonderful review.

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

I'd love to see a side by side comparison with both Diamine Ochre (which I've tried) and Diamine Terra Cotta (which I like a lot).

Thanks for the review. This one is a maybe....

Ruth,

brilliant question. The best thing about brilliant questions on FPN is that there are so many smart people on this forum that frequently they've been raised. And in this case, answered! A previous comparison indicated that terracotta is kind of matte, ancient copper is rich, and burnt sienna is bright. From personal experience, I can tell you that ochre is a little browner, but in the same family.

      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
