One of these is getting much warmer.
It is not a German ink.

[DrPenfection]

You have me stumped. I will have to think on this a bit. Off to make dinner. Back in a bit.

[mizgeorge]

This is from a line of inks especially well known for their beautiful colours, but which have a bad reputation in other ways. That should help!

[DrPenfection]

Well let's give this a try

Kyo-no-oto Seiheki - I didn't realize how new this ink was.

Sorry - late to the party.

I'm betting DrP got this correct. And I really want it ... (I wonder why Stilo e Stile has this one and the other new one that is not a special edition - Yurushiiro - priced higher than the other non-special edition inks?)

[mizgeorge]

Well let's give this a try

Kyo-no-oto Seiheki - I didn't realize how new this ink was.

And she scores!!!

It is just lovely - fascinating colour and seemingly less dry than some of the previous blue and green shades - though I wish I didn't feel the need to hoard my last bottles of Urahairo. I got mine from Stiloestile (their shipping rates are still very kind to us here), and didn't even notice that it was priced the same as the shimmering versions - I'm still getting over the sticker shock at what I paid for Ginkaisyoku, which I notice they now have at the same price.

Well done DrPenfection - I feel bad about using such a new ink, but I was writing with it at the time and really enjoying it, so couldn't resist!

[DrPenfection]

No worries, mizgeorge! Thank you so much for introducing me to this ink. I may have to try a sample. I will be back in a bit.

[DrPenfection]

mizgeorge, you are such an enabler! I just ordered a sample of Seiheki.

Today is another work day for me. I am preparing an inventory of hundreds of documents to later be analyzed. Sigh.

But it is just as well. It is snowing outside. All I can see is the heavy snowfall and the dark green of the swaying pine trees in the high winds. And, it just so happens that I have a pen filled with the following ink. Coincidence? Nah. I don't believe in coincidences. The weather knew what I was writing with today and decided to accomodate my writing.

Here is the ink:

And I think you'll like the Seiheki - I've even had nice results with it in pretty fine nibs, which is unusual for most Kyoto inks.

I don't envy you the snow though. We have cold, but at least it's not snowing or icy. Though I'm sure it's still worse in Yazeh-land.
