Inky Wednesday: Wearingeul and Birmingham Pen Company

A short while ago I picked up some ink – one incidental from Wearingeul, others a shared bundle from Birmingham Pen Company. I picked up the Traveler's Company 20th Anniversary card-sized notebook from Vanness and added Wearingeul's The Sorrows of Young Werther to my order, since it has been on my

Inks I'm currently using in my pens!

Imperial Purple, Kon-Peki, and Tsutsuji are my three favs, and are ALWAYS in a pen.

I just found out today that Sailor is discontinuing a lot of inks, so I'll probably need to find similar colors to replace the Sailor inks once my bottles are empty.

If I could afford it, I'd get the Caffè Bronze TWSBI ECO to load up with Teranishi Nostalgic Honey. The truth is, I really don't precisely *need* more #fountainpens or #inks.

One blue CO is EF, for writing in my #Filofax. The other blue ECO is 1.1 mm stub italic, for writing bank cheques. The red ECO is M, for crossing-out. The yellow ECO is B, for highlighting meeting documents. I also have a clear ECO F, filled with Teranishi Antique Black, but want to replace that with a black ECO F.

Fountain Pen Quickie: Spring Ink Palette

Quick post here to talk about these two latest pens that I filled a couple days ago. The Lamy 2000 had Diamine Ancient Copper in it, but I no longer felt it was seasonally appropriate, so I cleaned it out and refilled with Herbin Cacao du Brésil because I wanted

So, I noticed something odd the other day. I was writing in a notebook using my Asvine V126 with Diamine Writer’s Blood. When I came home I grabbed by V200 with Writer’s Blood to finish what I was writing, but the color / shading of the ink was very different. It was a lot darker and more saturated from the V200 vs the V126.

I compared the nibs under my loupe, but they seem to be mostly the same (ie, tines about the same width, no mis-alignment, etc.)

So, I decided to take things a step further and made the image in this message. Note both the Diamine Aurora Borealis and Writer’s Blood seem to have quite different characteristics.

(I should mention: all pens were recently cleaned, and all filled at the same time from the same bottle(s) of ink…)

Anyone have any thoughts on why this would be the case?
