Sailor (Pen & Message) Shuurushi (Red Urushi)

[lgsoltek]

Shu-urushi means red urushi, or red lacquer. It's a nice red with a slightly purple tint that I'd love to used in a red lacquered Nakaya (which I don't have, sadly).

Sample

It seems not as wet as some other Sailor inks, but it's in no way dry.

I like this a lot! I suppose it's almost impossible to get in this hemisphere?

P&N should be acquired by etsu in ebay the one who sells the Kobe inks as the shop is also located in the same city

Is it me, or is this a fairly good match for the MB Alfred Hitchcock?

I do like this ink. Is this the only "usable" red made by Sailor?

[inkstainedruth]

Thanks for the review. This definitely looks interesting.

 

Is it me, or is this a fairly good match for the MB Alfred Hitchcock?

I was thinking it would be a good match for J Herbin Rouge Hematite, given the sheen.

WOW... liking this one...

 

Last time I order some Cigar.. I wanted this one, but it was sold out..

 

I think next time I need something from Pen & Message I will get it.

This is really pretty. Thanks much.

I will say no. There is a definite pink element in this red which Hitchcock doesn't have.

Thank you for taking the time to share all of these P&M inks! This one isn't my favorite but I was very happy to see your great review of it! Now I can check it off the list

[cleosmama]

I like this color of red. And your penmanship is beautiful.

[A144]

Wow. I'm not a big fan of red inks but really like the looks of this one.

 

Thanks for making me want yet another another hard to get Sailor ink with anither great review... I think...

Hehe, it's a perfect match with a red lacquered Nakaya.

Looks like a great match for aka tamenuri, kuro tamenuri and shu finishes.

Oh, that's gorgeous!

[sarahfar]

Sheen and shading along with a hint of pin make it spectacular. Lot going on. I like Red Dragon and Hitchcock, but this is a more complex and

intriguing even ink. Too bad it isn't more readily available.

[Algester]

well what can we say about the availability latest rumors we had was that the company that produces the funnel bottles for sailor went down under, next because of this supply chain problem Ishimura Osamu has a large problem on his hands because he's the only one mixing these inks... almost 150 of them and is BACK ORDERED minus the people who has ordered their own custom inks from the ink clinic :X

I guess we can also understand how it seems to be in nathan tardiff's shoes
