Diamine Flower Set Pansy

[lgsoltek]

Pansy is a gorgeous purple with a lot of green sheen. It's a wet ink.

Two problems though: 1. It stains. 2. It completed faded in a fade test after a month under sunlight. (Not that we let our writings under sunlight every day though).

The sheen looks awesome.

Finally, an ink with a name that aptly describes Kesava Belletty.

 

Gorgeous color, but staining is the deal breaker.

It reminds me a lot of a sample I randomly got, Noodler's Violet, but this is more on the bluer side. Both capture their muses nicely.

Thank you so much! I was cautious with this ink because you warned me about the staining. I think the fading is a disgrace!

The colour looks terrific to me.  It's darker in my own experience, but it's a very interesting shade either way, and the behaviour is flawless in application.  It's a pity about the fading issue you describe.
