Hi there, I'm glad that I watched your video today. 😂 I did order the rose quartz online and will be arriving on Tuesday the 24th. I was worried that the ink might be to light. Thanks for your review I think it will be a good buy. At least it is darker than my Kaweco Sunset Orange. 👍 I did watched your video reviewing Syo Ru , Tsuki Yo and I am ordering those too in sample 5ml vial. And lucky me, I did found an local online retailer having stock on Iroshizuku Ina Ho which already discontinued. I will be buying that in 15 ml. The only volume they got. As always thanks again for all the videos.
Thank you so much for watching!!! That is so kind! I hope you will enjoy it. It’s an interesting ink. I read that if it’s too light for you, put the bottle in a window where it gets sunlight. The ink should darken. I put it in another pen with a 1.5 nib and it came out light. I left the pen out and the ink darkened inside the pen! Weird right?
@@fjschnitzer1 I forgot to mention how lovely the Pilot inks are! If you ever use a shimmer ink and your pen doesn’t perform well afterwards, clean & use an Iroshizuku ink. They’re lubricates and help any pen that might be skipping.
Pelikan has for many years brought out these annual special edition inks. These particular bottles have always appealed to me a lot. Looks like expensive perfumes. But somehow Pelikan inks generally always felt much too dry for my tastes. This is a pretty color, though. Pelikan’s Ink of the Year releases usually are. This pink is quite light, but usable on occasion when the mood strikes, I reckon. Yama-budo’s gorgeous magenta is really hard to top, though. Sailor has a few rather light, even kind of dusty, but quite pretty pinks. Good comparisons and presentation here. Thanks!
I have only tried 1-2 Pelikan inks, so I have next to no experience with the way these perform. This one did not seem too dry BUT I was using it with dip pens, so you can't really tell the performance. I filled my Diplomat Aero Antique Rose with this ink last night - it was a perfect match! Oh that makes me so happy! I will try it out today at church while I take my sermon notes. I have a wonderful Bible Journaling notebook that takes a lot of ink and does not bleed through. Good to know about the dryness - will be interesting to see how it compares to the dry Earl Grey from Diamine (one of my driest inks!). Yama budo... so incredibly beautiful! As I mentioned in the video, I don't tend to purchase too many light inks but they don't scare me because I can always use them for art or for dying papers. This ink appears darker on white paper than the creamy Tomoe I have in the Endless Recorder notebook I used for the review. That was a nice surprise! We shall see how it performs through the week... Thank you again for watching & for your kind comments.
