Hello avid readers, thank you for taking a look at my reviews.

I appreciate and enjoy reading the reviews that our other members have
taken their valuable time and effort to put together. As I stated in other
posts, my aim is simply to add more info and dimensions to your decision
making process, as opposed to reviewing the inks/papers/pens the same
as the other reviewers.

Having said that, this ink overall is a nice addition to the collection.
I wouldn't say this is quite a suitable ink for a corporate environment, as
those places stick to the traditional blue, black, red colours more.

There's always nothing wrong with having the option of this colour, but
this particular ink does look better on G.Lalo Verge De France Turquoise,
and Quill Metallic Paper. The ink just adds that wow factor. Excellent
combinations if you wish to impress.

If you look at the bottom imge, the turquoise paper is 'actually' turquoise/aqua,
not grey.

The photo is taken by a smart phone under room lights, which you can see
distort the paper to look grey. I just got this paper today, and it is very
beautiful to write on, particularly with the purple ink. It stands out better.

You would think that ink on the same/similar paper would look the best, but
sometimes it does not.

Some other colours, namely darker ink on lighter paper stand out more. These
G.Lalo pads of paper come in sheets of 50.
