    Yay
    Ok, so this one will either be really quick... or moderately quick... I can't remember if this ink had been up before... but I don't think it had..

    Omas turquoise? It's not quite a pure turquoise, maybe a little greenish?

    That's an interesting comment, a pure turquoise by nature must contain some green... I would say this is more of a pure light blue.

    I'm not a color expert (which I'm trying to improve using this forum) so I only know the very basics of how colors are formed. I had no clue pure turquoise would have some green, I probably thought turquoise was just a light blue. My first guess was ama-iro and what I wrote was a stream of consciousness, thinking the mystery ink had a hint of green.

    No worries, it's fun to learn and grow together
    Highlight from the definition in the Cambridge English Dictionary:
    - a blue-green precious stone often used in jewelry
    - Turquoise is also a blue-green color.

    Iro. Ama-Iro is much closer in colour and geographically to the ink

    I believe that Fujiyama Blue has a lot more grey/green to it than the ink I used.
    I've never seen the ink in person so I had to check the interwebs
    You got much "closer" but a bit too "boutique"

    Indeed it is more grey. In fact it's very easy to copy if you have P.I. Ama-iro and a reasonably saturated grey ink.
