Well, thank you for the effort of reviewing these inks. None of them appeals to me though.

You are most welcome.

This one looks a little too grey for my liking. You'd be able to see the sparkles more than you do the actual color.

Looks like a lovely grey, but for me, spoilt by the "glitter" content.

 

I've seen how much enthusiasm people were showing towards these inks at The London Pen Show. They are very popular so your reviews of them will please many. Thanks for making the time to review them.

 

Like they say in Dragon's Den though, "I'm out"

 

PS. Your Lexington Grey looks wrong. Waay too light.

Moon Dust is pretty, but seems to be a bit light looking on the page. But thanks for the review. I look forward to review of some the other ones, which might be more appealing.

Intriguing! As it's the closest I'll ever get to moon dust, I'll probably buy this ink. Thank you for your fine and enabling reviews. You have lovely penmanship.

[The Good Captain]

Same comment as the other one. And I like this one too. A great set of reviews too.

From the pictures, I like this one the best. I don't use ink with sparkles in them but have bought some for the bottles.

Thank you for the review. My sample of Moon Dust seems darker.

When I tested them few weeks ago Moon Dust was my favorite.

Has anyone done a comparison between this and the J. Herbin 1670 Story Grey, which is a dark grey with gold sparkly bits? I must admit, I am quite taken by shimmery inks, particularly if the sparkle is subtle.

I will try and upload a side by side as soon as I am able Liz. They are both unique with subtle sparkle, I adore them both!
