guess the ink!

[Yazeh]

Nope. It's not a Pelikan either, but as a giveaway hint it's an overpriced ink.... You pay for the bottle nothing else

How can that be? You wrote it's not a Montblanc ink!

There are also other overpriced inks like Iroshizuku, Caran d‘Ache, Faber Castell, DuPont and Vuitton to name some.

Caran d'Ache Electric Orange

[Yazeh]

We've got a winner !

Caran d'Ache Electric Orange

- Your turn

[azkid]

Woo hoo!!

Let me ink up something...

[GreyFool]

Montblanc Lavender Purple ?

[SchaumburgSwan]

Hi,

Rohrer & Klingner Scabiosa!?

[azkid]

Neither a Montblanc or R&K ink but good guesses.

[SchaumburgSwan]

Ok, not Scabiosa - so I underestimated it's saturation...
Then it could be Diamine Grape?

Jens

[azkid]

It isn't apparent with my dry-writing EF pen but, yes, you underestimated the saturation by a considerable margin.

Diamine Grape is an excellent guess. The ink in question is a Diamine ink. It does sheen a lot. And the color of the ink and sheen are similar to those of Grape.

[SchaumburgSwan]

Well, there is Scribble Purple, but too blueish - so my next guess is Diamine Monboddos Hat.

Jens

I'm sorry to say it is neither.

Oh, I was so sure...
Imperial Purple!?

[azkid]

Sorry no. I will attempt to post up a more obvious, sheening, iridescent sample tomorrow.

[azkid]

Here's a writing sample showing off the sheen. I'm using a wet writing Lucky Curve with a M nib.

[SchaumburgSwan]

Ah, that looks different... could it be Diamine Cult Pens Iridescink Robert?
