What Is Your Favorite Color Of Urushi? And What Kind Of Urushi?

Housoge Kikyo Platinum

Must agree. It is something to behold. Classic in every way.

For me, my favourite urushi colour is blue with gold, just like my Kamakura pen shown in the photo below. It comes with a Platinum 3776 music nib that writes broad and wet. It is a beautifully made

Japanese pen, just like the one that was made and presented to American General/President Grant when he visited Japan. I am a happy and proud owner of such a pen and I use it daily to write. I ink it with Montblanc Honore de Balzac Dandy Turquoise ink which sadly is no longer available. I am down to my last bottle.

An ink I have enjoyed very much with my Platinum music nib is the Platinum mix-free aurora blue. When you run out of your MB Dandy Turquoise, you might want to consider it. With some of the other mix-free colors, you might even be able to get a pretty good approximation of what you've been using.
