Tchaikovsky - Diamine Music Set

[visvamitra]

Manufacturers since 1864, Diamine Inks relocated to this purpose built 'state of the art' factory in Liverpool in 1925, where they successfully carried on using the traditional methods and formulas for ink production. Over the years the company has changed hands and are now located close to the world famous Aintree Race Course

Diamine offers interesting ink gift sets. The idea is nice but I'm not interested in full lines of inks, rather in colors I enjoy. That's why I'm pleased to say Diamine will offer all of their inks also in 30 ml plastic bottles. A friend of mine send me the samples of Music Set inks. I'll review them here.

1. Bach
2. Beethoven
3. Chopin
4. Handel
5. Mozart
6. Schubert
7. Strauss
8. Tchaikovsky
9. Vivaldi
10. Wagner

Tchaikovsky is quite nice. It does have some sheen. Very little, but perceptible.

Tchaikovsky is my favourite in this lovely set. In my vintage pens, on Tomoe River & Onion Skin paper, it has masses of rich red/purple sheen.

This is my favourite from the set too. A wonderful blue and I detect a hint of red tinge/sheen. Glorious.
