What inks are you waiting for?

[Mod_wolves]

As an important part of fountain pen geekery I thought it would e interesting to see what inks people are waiting to arrive.

Personally I have just bought some visconti turquoise (absolutely gorgeous).

I am now waiting for some vintage parker quink washable brown to arrive. It looks gorgeous and wasn't to expensive as NOS.

Bottle of Sailor Arima Amber and Iro Asa-Gao.

Samples of De Atramentis Tobacco, Private Reserve Chocolat, Iro Yama-Guri and Shin-Kai.

I'm waiting for samples of: Diamine Syrah, Diamine Oxblood, Noodler's Black Eel, Noodler's Red-Black, Noodler's Air Corps Blue, Noodler's Manjiro Nakahama (Whaler's Sepia), Scribal Workshop Leviathan, De Atramentis Blue-Black, De Atramentis Brown-Black, Rohrer and Klingner Sepia and J. Herbin Lies de The.

I feel bad for whoever at Goulet Pens has to track all those inks down and put them in little labeled vials. Sounds like a pain to me.

Yes

I wonder how BSiAR compares to Elderberries and really looking forward to the writer's ink too!

[Sailor Kenshin]

Waiting for MB Balzac. And then I really need to stop for a while.

I think you will really like the Tanzanite. I have that ink in a Pelikan M200 grey marble and just love it. It's dark with hints of navy but not black.

Waiting for...

3 no. Diamine (Red Dragon, Delamere Green and Chocolate Brown)
2 no. Montblanc (Burgandy Red and Midnight Blue)

Red Dragon is such a lovely shade of red. I'm curious to see how it stacks up to the Montblanc. Would you mind posting a swab sample of both after you get them?

I've received them both. I'll try posting something this week.

My latest loot:



Jane has not yet made it to my house.

[pencils+pens]

I was just notified the Cross Blue (from Cross) should be here in two or three days. The Akkerman ink from Vanness, which was ordered several days after the Cross ink, arrived yesterday.

I am waiting on Sheaffer Blue from ISellPens (and a few other things) and Noodler's Rachmaninoff, which I ordered from Goulet yesterday.

Is somebody a fan of red inks or is it just coincidence?

[Mod_wolves]

Also Tannie how are the scented inks? Do they smell truly of elderberries and plums or is it a fairly faint smell? I've been eyes up some j herbin scented inks but I'm not so sure whether it will truly smell aromatic.

After several days does it still give off a scent or would it not withstand several days in the post?

[tannie]

Yes, I needed to off-set the amount of blues (I don't like blue!) I have
