Brown - Sailor

[visvamitra]

Sailor makes stunning inks. Recently Cyber6 has sent me the sample of Jentle Brown ink from 2007-8 (?). Frankly this is one of the most interesting browns I've ever seen. Simply amazing.

Does anyone know it's presently obtainable twin? I've tried quite a lot of browns (soon I'll post comparison of around 70-80 of them) and this one remains quite unique to my eyes.

I'm thinking Cacao de Bresil from J. Herbin, but ti's not exact. That is a very evocative brown from Sailor.

Great ghostly avatars, Vman!

Hi Visa,

 

TROM gave me a bottle...... I LOVE that brown

[visvamitra]

Lucky you.

 

I'll make advert in classifieds. Maybe someone still has some of it

 

I'll repeat myself but this ink is simply stunning.

I am so glad you like it... I only send you the BEST.....

 

For everyone else... this is the Sailor Jentle Brown (first from the left). It was part of the Winter 2009 Season I believe it was released 2007 as Visvamitra posted.

Ooh, what ink was the first on the left, there? Looks like a nice gold or something?

//

Also, nice review! Beautiful brown.

Need to look for that one... I have Sailor Yellow-Orange which has the same box... but the bottle label is lighter.

Nope.. the first one was Yellow-Orange. I have that one too.

 

The one in this review? https://www.fountainpennetwork.com/forum/index.php/topic/48203-sailor-yellow-orange/ Awesome!

[saskia_madding]

The blue from that line is pretty terrible, and so was the green. Totally washed out and insipid, in my opinion. I didn't get to try the brown, but I don't tend to like browns so I'm not heartbroken. I prefer to just look at gorgeous online pictures instead. Thanks visvamitra!

[Cyber6]

Sorry everyone... I made a mistake... the Sailor Brown is actually the FIRST one on the left. The second one is Sailor Red-Brown.

I did some googling and the first one is the Sailor Brown (from this review)... the second bottle is Sailor Red-Brown. The Sailor Yellow-Orange is not shown on the picture.. and that review (your link) makes it look way too yellow.

 

 

This one is better... http://fpgeeks.com/forum/showthread.php/6239-FYI-Sailor-Ink-Fans

Gotcha! Thanks for the clarification. Yellow-orange looks lovely. Sailor sure is good at making me pine after more inks that I could reasonably try in a lifetime.

[lgsoltek]

Can't wait for your brown comparison! I wonder how this compares to other browns like Lie de thé, R&K Sepia, etc.

[visvamitra]

I've managed to win a bottle on ebay. That's rerally amazing ink
