Review - Parker Quink - Permanent Blue

[corniche]

Wondering if the color or consistency has changed over the 7 years (ink you use now vs the ink used after 7 years)

 

By the way, Sean, based on your review I bought this ink (French bottle from eBay) to mix to make a very faded vintage Parker Blue Black more blue. I like the color on it's own, and also the mixture. I think now I have to add some Parker Black to get the exact color I have in mind.

 

I previously posted my ink card on another thread...re-posting here.

 

 

Hi GreenMountain,

 

Sorry, I had lost track of this post. I just now went to look for my notes from back then and nfortunately, I can't put my hands on them. But I had been using that ink for years and I don't recall it having a fading issue.

 

Yes, it is a beautiful color in its own right... and your blend looks great, too. I wish Parker would distribute it in the US; I usually have to get it through Amazon or Ebay, (but Endless Pens has been carrying it lately). Btw, when you add the black; do it by the drop - its stronger than you'd think.

 

Nice job.
