guess the ink!

[SIR]

Sailor Rikyu Cha?

Not quite but very close. A cousin ink that's often compared to the mystery sample.

Kobe #21? Looks very similar to what I have in my MB right now!

[SIR]

Not quite Sems, Kobe #21 looks more golden brown to me...

Kyo-no-oto Yamabukiiro?

[SIR]

KWZ Old Gold

No...

Kyo-no-oto Yamabukiiro?

Yes!

Well, that was quicker than I anticipated, I didn't even get to give any cryptic clues about Koi carp and yellow roses - very good Migo, your turn!

Thanks. It's such a distinctive ink, and I agree it's a very pretty shade. I guessed Oster Green Olive first as it's very close to Yamabukiiro. I think Oster Green Olive should be renamed 'Olive Oil' :-)

I'll post the next ink in the morning.

WOW Migo! that was impressive!!!!

About three years ago I was fortunate enough to be sent a pre-release trial bottle of this beautiful ink by TAG (the people who developed this range of inks). I did a lot of writing with it back then & consequently am very familiar with it. So my guess was the result of a very lucky coincidence

I guessed Oster Green Olive first because they are very similar inks, in colour and behaviour. My favourite is the Kyo-no-oto.

Definitely try some if you can get some!

I haven't done a 'Guess the Ink' for quite some time. My memory is increasingly fallible so apologies if this one has been done before.

This is written on Tomoegawa 52gsm. There is a small amount of silver sheen from this wet-writing Pelikan 100N with a fine semi-flex nib. I think it'll be guessed quite quickly.
