Parker Permanent Rot

Parker Permanent Rot

Not a Parker ink.

Clue: it's a pigment ink.

platinum pigmented rose red

[klundtasaur]

It's made in the US (& it's not a Noodler's).
it's a pigment ink.

Made in the US?! That definitely narrows it down. There are only 4 companies I know that currently make ink in the US:
Noodler's, Levenger, Private Reserve, and Organics Studio.

Organics Studio Elements Mercury Red? (though I didn't think that one was pigmented)




...unless it's a vintage ink.

No, not Japanese.

Yes, it's made in the US, but it's none of those four, and it's a current (fairly new) ink.

Whoops, forgot Franklin Christoph.

Franklin Christoph Red 187? Is that pigmented?

No, not a Franklin Christoph ink.

The maker is well-known for inks, but only made fountain-pen friendly inks recently.

Speedball red?

[migo984]

Speedball red?

No - not Speedball.

Shall I post the answer? I think this one is a little bit too obscure, for which I apologise.

[klundtasaur]

Man, I'm excited to see who this other US manufacturer is! I don't know a single other company that makes their inks in the US. Higgins, maybe? But AFAIK they're just calligraphy inks (like Speedball).

Dr. Ph. Martin's red garnet rose?

[migo984]

Dr. Ph. Martin's red garnet rose?

Yes - YIPPEE! At last :-) well done.

Have you tried it? It's a lovely ink. So is Edge Blue. I wouldn't use it in a vintage/hard-to-clean pen but it's fab in a TWSBI.

Oops, sorry about that! (I should have forced an update on my feed, my bad.)

Congrats catbert!

Wouldn’t have got there without all the clues. Thanks for bringing these inks to our attention, migo.

Was kind of hoping it would turn out to be ‘permanent rot’ because that’s the state of my office right now ... Anyway, will rummage in the ink drawer and prep something for later.

Thanks conib! I'm afraid my offering won't be nearly as challenging.

No pens currently inked (to coin a phrase) with this one, so resorting to glass and steel dip nibs, and a q-tip.
