Diamine Dark Brown

[desertsquid]

This is a review of Diamine Dark Brown. I ordered some other inks from Diamine and this was one of the free ink cartridges that they sent me along with my order.

I've also reviewed this ink as part of my comparison of four brown inks on four different papers.

Yeah, weird they call this dark brown. Thanks for review.

Yes, I agree that "dark brown" is a very odd name for this ink. "Light brown" might have been a better name.

Hi

 

The formulation for Diamine Dark Brown is over 50 years old, all i can think of is that at the time it was probably the darkest brown in the range, i totally agree though it is not dark at all and could probably do with being re-named.

I know that it is an old thread but I have just wrote with this ink for first time and I fully agree with you, its darkness is only in its name... but it was part of a Diamine pack (Classic) and I just won't repeat...
