Blackstone Red Kunzea - Compact Review

[Jan2016]

[Jan2016]

Pretty close to Diamine Red Dragon. This one a little bit more brown, Diamine Red Dragon a little bit more red. Red Dragon is upcoming...

What I like about this one is that the outline of the lines get a kind of dark outline. If you enlarge the picture you can see it.

And it smells nice during writing....

Pretty nice as well.

I love this ink. ♥ The scent is just lovely, reminiscent of roses (to my nose, at least) AND it lingers on the nib and on the paper!

Unfortunately, I read online that Blackstone has closed up shop and whatever Red Kunzea was produced prior to the close is all there is. I have one bottle but I don't believe I have a second.

I'm having very little luck finding another for back up. I guess I'm hoarding the little bit I have, along with all my Lamy Copper Orange cartridges. (And as far as cartridges go, I have to worry about them evaporating through the plastic and leaving my stash of it depleted in the end, anyway ...)

Does anyone here have a line on where I might get another bottle of Red Kunzea? I really would like one to spare.

That's a really good question.

 

I'd start looking at some of the online stores. You want someone who has pre-covid stock.

That's good advice. Thank you! 😃
