Rohrer & Klingner - Solferino - Informal Review

Recommended Posts

In preparing for the 2013 Fade Olympics, I pulled out ink samples and started doodling. Here's an ink or two that I hadn't used before.

Fountain pens are my preferred COLOR DELIVERY SYSTEM (in part because crayons melt in Las Vegas).

Hi,

 

Thanks for yet another sampling! :thumbup:

 

I've used Solferino for yonks as my 'screaming' ink - most often to write soon-to-be ex-beaux. Typically used on paper with a Canary Yellow tint with a rigid steel nibbed pen.

 

You make it look sooo much nicer . . .

 

Bye,

A really nice shade - I'm tempted!

BTW, was it the feathering fish that made it entertaining??? Or just my stream of conscious ramblings?
