guess the ink!

[DrPenfection]

sorry - I'm neglecting my guessing - horribly busy with work and other things. I'll look again properly in the morning!

No worries. We all have things that are a bit more important.

All great guesses, but none are this ink.

This ink is not made in Europe or North America. It also isn't made in Korea, India or Australia.

Vinta Tubbataha - Sulu Blue
Ink Studio 740
PenBBS 513 Autumn Begins

PenBBS 411 Purple Sky
Sailor Nioi Sumire

[DrPenfection]

This isn't a Chinese or Taiwanese ink. It also is not made by Sailor.

[DrPenfection]

This ink is made by a well-known pen manufacturer that also happens to produce ink.

So… its just pilot blue?…

[mizgeorge]

platinum pigment blue
Pilot Namiki Blue
Ajisai / Murasaki-Shikibu

but I'm thinking #25212 might just be it! (and can't believe I didn't try that sooner!)

No, but that is a great guess!

platinum pigment blue

OOOOhhhh sooooooo close!

mizgeorge, one of the two manufacturers above is correct. But this manufacturer doesn't make as many inks. And the ink you guessed is the same color but not the same formula.

[mizgeorge]

Platinum Aurora Blue
Platinum Blue Black (which is definitely not a blue black!)

[DrPenfection]

Platinum Aurora Blue
Platinum Blue Black (which is definitely not a blue black!)

YES, it is Platinum Aurora Blue Mixable Ink!

Well done!

I recently purchased a couple Platinum Curidas pens and a small bottle of the Platinum Aurora Blue came with each pen. What a delightful ink! And I was surprised to find that it is somewhat water resistant.

Anyway, back to you, mizgeorge!

[mizgeorge]

Phew! I was running out of ideas Thank you for the clues - it would have been impossible without them!

I've been toying with getting a set of the mixables for a while, but I hold off because it's just too deep a rabbit hole for me to risk right now.

But I agree, this is a lovely colour - I wish I'd got a bottle with my Curidas (which is a pen I use a lot).

[mizgeorge]

And for once, I'm slightly organised, as I had an ink I was just playing with right to hand.

I'm enjoying this one. It's a colour family I seem to have a bit of a weakness for at the moment.

[DrPenfection]

Great color! I really like it.

So, let's try:
