Chelpark Crimson Violet: Short Review


Mesu

Recommended Posts

Very nice review. I didn't expect the water resistance.

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

This looks pink in my eyes, neither crimson,nor violet.

My bottles of Crimson Violet from Chelpark (batch of 2011) looks pretty much the same as yours, if not more pink-ish. In fact I find that the sample of Bril Laurel Rose posted here has more similarity to my Chelpark Crimson Violet.

Yes, almost 2 months later it is still pink, no darkening.

Looking for: Camlin pens (minus SD/Trinity/Elegante)

I don't think it darkens much inside the bottle - especially if you keep light from hitting it - but in pens, I definitely see it darken. Not only in demonstrators but also in opaque barrel pens. I'm starting to think it is because of evaporation though.

Hi All,

 

Reviving this old thread, instead of starting another, since I see that the first page had some great inputs on chelpark, before the thread got diverted from topic (hijacked! :huh: )..

 

I was looking for a few packs of bril ink here in Pune. I came across Chelpark Blue,black,Red and violet. (so much win!! :bunny01: )

 

Of course I couldn't dip test the ink (or the cheapie camlin ED I bought :P ) in the store itself, so I just scribbled a line or two, after I came home.

This looks pink in my eyes, neither crimson,nor violet. I do not like this color,neither does my gf. So, I have no use for this. :closedeyes:

 

Could swap with a sulekha/bril purple, :lticaptd: if only the store stocked them.

 

 

Just add a few drops of Chelpark Blue to your Chelpark Violet. You should get a nicer purple... :D

Hey,

 

I have been looking for Chelpark colored ink for some time now, I have been just getting the black and the blue ink (Royal Blue) from a local shop, but its very hard to find the same at other stores around

I normally use the ink in my Schneider or Parker pens, recently for my Wingsung pen as well.

 

Can you please direct me to the shop where you guys normally buy in Bombay please

      Oh to have that translucent pink Prera! @migo984 has the Oeste series named after birds. There is a pink one, so I’m assuming Este is the same pen as Oeste.    Excellent haul. I have some Uniball One P pens. Do you like to use them? I like them enough, but don’t use them too much yet.    Do you or your wife use Travelers Notebooks? Seeing you were at Kyoto, I thought of them as there is a store there.

      It's not nearly so thick that I feel it comprises my fine-grained control, the way I feel about the Cross Peerless 125 or some of the high-end TACCIA Urushi pens with cigar-shaped bodies and 18K gold nibs. Why would you expect me or anyone else to make explicit mention of it, if it isn't a travesty or such a disappointment that an owner of the pen would want to bring it to the attention of his/her peers so that they could “learn from his/her mistake” without paying the price?

      Why nobody says that the section of Tuzu besides triangular shape is quite thick. Honestly it’s the thickest one among my many pens, other thick I own is Noodler’s Ahab. Because of that fat section I feel more control and my handwriting has improved. I can’t say it’s comfortable or uncomfortable, but needs a moment to accommodate. It’s funny because my school years are long over. Besides this pen had horrible F nib. Tines were perfectly aligned but it was so scratchy on left stroke that collecte

      Awesome! I'm in the process of preparing my bag for our pen meet this weekend and I literally have none of the items you mention!! I'll see if I can find one or two!

      @asota -- Yeah, I think I have a few rolls in my fridge that are probably 20-30 years old at this point (don't remember now if they are B&W or color film) and don't even really know where to get the film processed, once the drive through kiosks went away....  I just did a quick Google search and (in theory) there was a place the next town over from me -- but got a 404 error message when I tried to click on the link....  Ruth Morrisson aka inkstainedruth
