and now for something a bit more obvious -
DeAtramentis Heather Violet
Another lovely sketch!
I’m also surprised at the lack of Noodler’s guesses, but I’ll get started on that for you all…
Noodler’s La Reine Mauve
Yazeh (August 3rd, 2021)
None of the above.
Definitely not a Montblanc nor Tono....
how about some more obvious guesses:
Robert Oster Viola
L'Artisan Pastellier Classique Lilas
L'Artisan Pastellier Classique Violet
Papier Plume Violet
and for a few not so obvious:
Akkerman Parkpop Purple
Monteverde Purple Reign
KWZ Gummiberry
KWZ Stay Home Purple
Noodler's Purple Mountain Majesty
Taccia Murasaki
I think that is enough for now -
Diamine Pansy
Diamine Monboddo's Hat
Pelikan 4001 Violet
R&K Cassia
Colorverse Hayabusa
Colorverse Delicious Sleep
And then the Noodlers
Noodlers King Phillip Requiem
Noodlers Bay State Concord Grape
Monteverde Amythyst
noodlers v-mail North African Violet
Noodlers La Couleur Royale
Noodlers Purple
(I think some of these may too waterproof though!)
@thi - do you want some Krishna Ghat for your avatar?
None of the above
not from the land of gator, bayou or catfish, nor that of Vermeer and Rembrandt..or Turner and his violet skies, or grandoose Berlioz, or delicate Chopin and tempestuous Liszt..

Thank you for the hints. And your sketch is very nice indeed. Thank you.
So, here is another round of guesses - my last for the evening:
Montegrappa Violet
Van Dieman's Elizabeth's Violet Eyes
Sailor Shikori Yozakura (an ink I am planning to get sometime soon)
Sheaffer Purple
Sailor Ink Studio 135, 235 or 435
Scribo Notterno Violet (might be too dark though)
Bungubox L'Amant
Robert Oster Velvet Crush
Not Italian... Not from the down under and not Japanese....
OK - not my last
Krishna Sea & Storm
Colorverse Deep Purple
TWSBI Royal Purple
3 Oysters DIY Violet
PenBBS Clear & Bright

truly the last for tonight
PenBBS Blueberry Ink
Ooh, that looks nice! I believe I do want some of that!
My avatar photo was actually taken on the Isle of Skye at driving speeds, accidentally resulting in something tilt-shifty.
I don’t know anything about photography, but my wife pointed it out later. Maybe I’ll dig around for the original…
I’ve missed so many guesses, I’m not sure what I can add.
Pretty sure this is wrong, but how about Birmingham Pen Company Violet Starling (old formulation)?

I'll give you a bunch of hints
Ink is not from Asia.
It's not Noodler's.
@DrPenfection has named the brand.
Oh and ink is not waterproof.....
De Atramentis purple violet?

I really didn't get that - honours belong to the good Dr So I'm ceding this turn if I may!
