Tintenlabor Weihnachtsrot

[christof]

There is a new ink by Tintenlabor. its called: "Weihnachtsrot"

 

It's an iron gall ink with vanilla flower!

 

When freshly applied, the ink is a rich garnet red, which quickly darkens and changes to ruby red. Depending on the paper, the colour darkens even more and turns into a dark violet.

But it gets even better! The creator of this ink allowed me to take a peek inside the actual ink laboratory!  So here is the photo report, straight from the ink laboratory:

 

 

 

Wish you a  Merry Christmas!

The details of that 3D lab are just so fantastic, @christof!  The bottle with the spigot in the background is hilarious!  And I just now noticed what I assume is a fume hood.  What a brilliant way to show off the ink.  Your drawings make me smile and the work and creativity are truly impressive.  Thanks for sharing your skill and talent with us.

 

A very Merry Christmas to you and yours!

Thank you Liz! Same to you.

I generally don't go for reds that aren't RED.  But this one definitely has piqued my interest (as have a number of other Tintenlabor inks I've seen reviewed.

The issue for me is whether I can easily get them (especially from a vender here in the US).  NOT (of course) that I need ANY more inks at the moment -- especially IG inks, which I probably wouldn't go through fast enough....
