    Oooh, forgot about Super5 Frankfurt Grey! Such a nice color! I have the Atlantic blue and Dublin Green - very nice permanent inks for drawing! I keep thinking I'll get the grey one too. (And I didn't count these drawing inks when I said I didn't have more than one bottle of most brands, haha!)

    Nope, it's actually the Venvstas Fumo di Londra! I originally thought it meant London Fog, but today I learned that Fumo di Londra is a type of granite (see https://marble.com/granite-counterto...-di-londra/385). Venvstas is very much about architecture and the beauty and solidity of buildings and materials, so it does fit.

    It is also a very unpredictable ink, depending on which pen I put it in. It changes color from blue/green to very dark grey, depending on how wet the pen writes, which I suppose is also a bit how nature works

    But you're up now, so I can't wait to see what you've got in store! And by the way, how ever did you find some of those brands??

    Haha! Sneaky! Couronne is where I bought it of course, being here in the Netherlands - and kind of why I had assumed originally that it was a bigger brand.

    And yes, I also saw that Fountain Pen Love blog on one of the other rounds. I wish they had done more colors than just the grays!

    Darla, thank you for posting your ink! I learned something new as well. It is my understanding that Venustas has been around a while, but the ink is relatively new. If you have time, check out Figboot on Pens on YouTube. He does a lot of reviews on their pens.

    Yazeh, you did such a great job on this last round that I feel that you should just go ahead an post an ink - that is if you are feeling up to it. If not, we can continue with mine. The choice is yours.

    Oh what a great round - I'm so sorry I missed out on this one, especially as it's an ink that's been on my wishlist for a couple of months now (and out of stock in the UK). And well done Yazeh!

    I hope I'll be able to join in a bit more now - the worst of what turned out to be a rather nasty chest infection seems to be over, and I'm just about catching up with myself! I still feel ready to sleep for about a month though.

    Glad to know you're feeling better. Darla chose a fun one, a pity you missed it. But there will be many more... Now we have Dr. P's to guess...

    Hints are in order:

    It is a dark green ink - not a black ink.

    I do not believe that the brand has been named yet.

    Glad to see you are up and around, mizgeorge! And I hope your recover soon. We have had some fun time with Darla's guess, but you have been missed.
