guess the ink!

[Yazeh]

Rohrer & Klingner Alt-Bordeaux?
Rohrer & Klingner SketchINK Jule?
Rouille d'ancre?

[migo984]

That’s looks like a washed-out caput mortuum to me! My first thoughts were Pen & Message Old Burgundy (but that may be too saturated) or maybe Krishna Pencil?

[Yazeh]

KWZ Standard Grey Plum?
KWZ Standard Berry?

[Yazeh]

maybe Krishna Pencil?

I think you got it

[Darla]

I love the wishy-washy, mizgeorge!! And I've been searching off and on all day for an ink but couldn't come up with anything. I too think it must be migo984's guess of Krishna Pencil.

[Darla]

Mustvoros is a nice color. My favorite reds in that range are the Sailor Manyo Kuzu, Ume and even Akebi. They are much wetter, have nice sheen and shading. Scribe Garnet is also really nice, but it is a bit more purple than Candy Marsala. I know you like Monteverde inks, so you may want to give Napa Burgundy a try or even Blueberry Muffin. Each one is a bit different in color, but they are all much "wetter" than Candy Marsala.

Oooh, thanks for the tips!! And now indeed

[DrPenfection]

migo beat me to Krishna Pencil

Oh well - here are some others:
Kobe #54 Goshikiyama Ocher
Colorverse Brunch Date
Diamine Cult Pens Sultry Strawberry
FWP Strawberry Macarroon

Bouquet Antan?

I can see why you might think that, but no.

For some reason I miss the R is Marsala and read it Candy Masala

Wine, Curry, Wine, Curry, it's all much the same colour...

She really is very good, you know...

It is indeed Krishna Pencil, which is one of those inks I like in spite of myself!

Congratulations

Well done migo984!

This is an ink that I do not have, and was surprised to find it such an intriguing color.

Krishna Pencil is a very distinctive ink, especially the green that shows in a wash.

I’ve got visitors today so may not get an ink posted, but I’ll try 🙂

[migo984]

Visitors have gone out for a walk so I grabbed the opportunity to do a very quick ink for guessing. I’ve had it in this Kaweco Sport for about a week but it hasn’t darkened much over that time. This is a photo taken with my iPad. It is reasonably accurate.

Happy guessing 🙂

I find these shades very hard to tell apart - I think they're all too like wine for me

Kaweco Summer Purple
Kobe 6 Bordeaux
Straits Pen Bougainvillea Purple

Not those inks I’m afraid.

It’s not really much like a wine colour - unless you’ve already had two bottles of vino del collapso before lunch 😉😆

[mizgeorge]

Haha - and I'm a non-drinker.

I'll try Robert Oster Cherry Blossom or Dusty Pink

Good guesses. It’s very close to Oster Dusky Pink; a touch more saturated.

Callifolio Grenat
Platinum Lavender Black
Noodler's Mata Hari's Cordial

[Yazeh]

Mata Hari is truly darker @mizgeorge....

[migo984]

Callifolio Grenat
Platinum Lavender Black
Noodler's Mata Hari's Cordial

None of these - but I do love Lavender Black

[Darla]

It seems to me to be bordering on purple, so Ill start with Herbin Larmes de Cassis
