One of the recent purple duo released by Diamine in collaboration with Facebook group Fountain Pen UK. For more background story see for example the lovely art-centric review by Nick Stewart.

 

Scribble Purple is a really dark purple that could seem black at a glance. It flows well and writes smooth. There's some but not prominent golden sheen.

Your photographs show the color and sheen so well, and I love the way the macro photographs show off the paper texture, and the tiny diamonds that dot your i’s and j’s. I enjoy this ink.

This ink flows wonderfully in this Platinum 3776 Music nib. Such a joy to write with.

Scribble Purple looks beautiful. I have Diamine Grape but am disappointed both by the flow and by the way the ink reddens as it dries. If this ink is better behaved, it seems like an attractive alternative.

Your photography sold this ink for me! Definitely getting a sample!

“Many boys will bring you flowers. But someday you'll meet a boy who will learn your favorite flower, your favorite song, your favorite sweet. And even if he is too poor to give you any of them, it won't matter because he will have taken the time to know you as no one else does. Only that boy earns your heart."

Love this ink and your review!

If there is righteousness in the heart, There will be beauty in character. If there is beauty in character, There will be harmony in the home.

Thanks for your review. On the last picture actually looks black, at least on my monitor. I think I will pass on this one. How do you compare this one with Cult Pens's Robert?

      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
