Anahuac - L'artisan Pastellier

[visvamitra]

L'Artisan Pastellier is french ink / calligraphy materials producers. They offer two lines of inks suitable for fountain pens: CALLIFOLIO (inks made for fountain pens, neutral PH and so on) andENCRES CLASSIQUES (not all of them may have perfect properties however I've tried most of them and had no issues in my fountain pens).

L'Artisan Pastellier inks don't get much love or attention here. I understand this as they're not easily obtainable. You may buy them directly from the producer's on-line/stationery boutique. The best thing to do is to organize group buy (I've done it twice last year for polish sountain pen board). It's nice thing to do - you get to meet a lot of people to exchange inks and the shipment cost becomes really friendly.

I must admit I'm huge fan of Callifolio series. They have cool names and some trully unique colors. They're nor super-saturated but I like them this way.

Soon I'll prepare comparison of all 36 colors (there are two new Teodora and Olivastre) but it'll take time. Maybe November?

I'll make reviews of some of them.

Anahuac is nice, warm orange-brown.

V - thank you for this wonderful review!

 

These inks do have some wonderful and different colors. Did you like the flow of this one? I love oranges.

[visvamitra]

Yes - this one have really good flow. Soon I'll post reviews of inks with issues (Yalumba has nice color but it lacks saturation, Heure Doree could be amazing if only it was more saturated).

I felt that way about so many of their inks. They had so much potential.

Vis... thanks so much for these reviews... I will be planning a Callifolio Group Buy in the near future, and this helps a lot to make my own list...

 

Waiting on Heure Doree... you know how much I love those "golden" hues..
