✒️ Inky Wednesday: Wearingeul and Birmingham Pen Company
https://cjs-wunderkammer.ghost.io/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
I have a new video for you. It's my first platypus design I made with #NomadSculpt.

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.

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?
