    Nope.

    I'll give everyone a hint.
    The manufacturer is not one that people think of when we talk inks.
    It occasionally comes up when we talk pens.


    And look at the sheen! (from a very wet Masuyama B Stub... not so much out of a Visconti steel F)

    And we have a winner here folks!
    (despite the ability to spell like an engineer!)

    I picked a sample of it up as a possible replacement for the Pelikan Edelstein Garnet that I love, but was only produced in limited quantities. I only have 2 bottles and 4 long cartridges of that one, so I figure I'd run out sooner or later

    Okay Pterodactylus, your turn!
    And the sheen didn't really show up until I let the ink concentrate in the pen (i.e. I forgot about it and I think the color saturated more than a fresh fill).

    It's much harder to guess an ink that's been sitting in a pen for a while & has concentrated somewhat. My 'fresh' GvFC Garnet is lighter & redder than it appears in your pics.

    Yes and no. The lighter notes of the writing sample done with the Franklin Christoph B Stub looks the same shade as my fresh pull sample, but then again, I think it did not darken all that much in that pen. It's a very wet writer and that seems to produce the darker, sheenier color.

    My garnet is an unusually light color and makes it unusable in anything but my flex pens

    Thanks Naimitsu, Garnet seems to be a really interesting ink.
    I do not have it, but the pictures I saw were also that dark.
    Btw. I´m also an engineer
