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

In the first post, the top picture is on 3x5 inch index card.

 

The bottom picture was TR paper.

 

I used this pen and I'm not sure the problem isn't that the pen feed is in sufficient to keep up with the nib.

The color is actually violet.  If you can see this photo, you get a better idea.

What a wonderful review. It was recommended by a friend.i think I better get a sample vial before I commit to a bottle. Thanks for taking the time to do the review!

The color doesn't really show here. This ink reminds me of Akkerman S-V - the ink is a violet color.

:) Thanks for the flowers and the review!  Love the wide variety of papers and writing samples - just shows how different a single ink can be, depending on the other variables.

On my screen it looks more blue violet -- very similar to Robert Oster Dragon's Night (an ink I really need to get a full bottle of at some point...).

Thanks all!  It is definitely a blue violet not a red violet, but it is not as blue as the scans make it look.
