Seitz-Kreuznach Palm Green

[white_lotus]

I received some samples, and some of this ink was included. Based on comments in some other reviews most people seem to hate this color. I can't say it's a favorite of mine, but the shading isn't half bad, and there's some subtle red sheen outlining going on on TR paper. Definitely not the color of a palm tree.

 

The handling for the ink is perfectly fine. It's not water-resistant at all. The ink was fine on better papers, but on the inkjet paper there was quite a bit of spread, and a fine wrote like more than a medium.

 

The ink is quite bright and luminously green. It makes Ishida bungu's Hakodate yama look mellow and sedate and pleasing, which I of course think it is anyway.

 

Pen: Edison Premiere (F-steel)

Papers: MvL=Mohawk via Linen, TR=Tomoe River, Hij=Hammermill 28 lb inkjet, Rhodia=Rhodia 90g ivory.

Thanks for the review. Not a green for me, but knowing that helps my bottom line....
