Cornflower is my favorite ink from the Flower Set. I'm using it in a Pelikan M1000 with a BB nib that was stubbed by Pendleton Brown. Yummy.

Rationalizing pen and ink purchases since 1967.

I hope someone does this ink in the PPS Comparison.

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

Create a Ghostly Avatar and I'll send you a letter. Check out some Ink comparisons: The Great PPS Comparison 

Don't know where to start?  Look at the Inky Topics O'day.  Then, see inks sorted by color: Blue Purple Brown Red Green Dark Green Orange Black Pinks Yellows Blue-Blacks Grey/Gray UVInks Turquoise/Teal MURKY

Nice review. Good photos. I love this type of blurple. Good thing that we can now purchase single bottles of them.

Mike, why haven't you volunteered? I know you have a blue ink or two.

 

Join the fun - be part of the largest BLUE ink comparison. Your inky-put is appreciated.

The PPS is nice, but I'm not sure I get all the hoopla surrounding it. I'm glad I got a chance to see it in the 'flesh.' The Cornflower is nothing like it (much more purple), but it has a nice vibrancy. On paper, I'd have a hard time telling it and Asa-gao apart.

I love this classic color, and may pick up a bottle. First, I'm wondering how does it compare to PR 'Tanzanite'?

I don't have Tanzanite, unfortunately. Maybe someone else can comment?

Those are Marumam Word Cards. I don't know if they're available in Europe, but I know Goulet Pens, which ships internationally, has just started carrying them. Sorry I can't be more helpful!
