Rohrer & Klingner Fountain Pen Ink (50mL) - Solferino (Violet)

I have been searching for that purple that puts a smile on your face. I have a fair number of purple inks, but this one stands apart. It has variation in colour and intensity. Used with a Medium nib, it is what I have been seeking. It lovely to see how an ink behaves when it is wet and settles in some of the written letters. I block print for the most part, (a habit developed making course notes in school) so the lifting and stroking of the pen plays so well with this particular ink.
Having now tried a few Rohrer & Klingner inks, I must say, I like them very much.

I had put this ink on my Wonder Pens wishlist and my husband gave it to me for Christmas. It is a stunning shade of violet, dries quickly, and is just a pleasure to write with. I paired it with my Lilac TWSBI Eco (f) and it's a perfect combo.

Was looking for a highly saturated violet ink - this is it! I only bought a sample but I will be buying more for sure. This ink really pops up the page and it flows really, really well. Not a lot of shading but the saturation makes up for it.

I wanted a bright colour to go in the new TWSBI Eco Turquoise and this ink is definitely bright. The ink has nice flow and it does dry surprising fast so no long waits to turn the page. It's a very pretty colour and would be good for art, journalling or letter writing but you may get some strange looks if you use it at work.

I love this ink so much... It flows really well on my Pilot Metropolitan or TWSBI Eco, and looks absolutely stunning. It's a very vivid ink, so if you're planning to use this for school or work, I wouldn't recommend it. It dries really fast, something I did not expect. Buy this ink if you like the color!
