Here's a review of the Callifolio Equinoxe 6 that I purchased from Vanness Pen Shop at the Atlanta Pen Show. I'm really enjoying this ink. Full review and description are up on my blog at http://www.gentlemanstationer.com/blog/2015/6/13/ink-review-callifolio-equinoxe-6, but here are some pics of the ink, which I would describe as a darker Yama Dori.

Your images are too big for me to see them on my PC. May I respectfully suggest you could try adjusting their size for posting at a good size to see on FPG?

Thanks for the review; it's interesting to see a more unusual ink for a change. I have quite a few Callifolio inks but not that one. I find their inks variable in performance, but that one looks like one of the better ones. I like the colour a lot and will have to try it myself.

As an aside, the manufacturer (L'Artisan Pastellier) makes some beautiful artists' pigments & pastels. And they've been using those triangular-shaped bottles for much longer than Diamine.

Your images display OK on my tablet.

Image 1 is 162.52cm wide @ 45.5Mb pixel dimensions. It doesn't need to be that big to display on a computer screen.

I can only see the whole image if I right click and select 'view image'

Was just pointing out that it appears perfectly viewable on my tablet screen, without any problems at all. Screen print below......

Yeah Chrome resizes the images for me. They are never too big. *shrug*

I will see what I can do. I can view it fine on my Mac, but when I try to open on Firefox on my PC it looks messed up.
