Levenger Shiraz

[lgsoltek]

The Ink Review King aka Visvamitra sent me a bunch of samples (as well as some of his ink splashes!). Thank you Vis!

 

Levenger Shiraz is a gorgeous! I love how vibrant it is! I find that all the Levenger inks I've tried are wet and smooth. I love them for that.

I love the colour in the splash, but not too sure of it in the written sample. This is one colour I would enjoy saturated. Thank you as always, for your review and beautiful handwriting.

I'm glad you received the package Yes, SHiraz is cool ink PS: Orange ink in a vial with no name on it is Stipula Saffron.

Yes I saw the note. How did you know I wanted to try that?

Nice. How similar is it to P&M Old Burgundy? And it looks perhaps similar to Diamine Tyrian Purple, is that so? Or even KWZ Maroon?

I have none of the three you mentioned. I have Maroon #2, which is redder and browner.

Excellent review! I'm a big fan of the Levenger Inks...especially Pomegranate, which unfortunately they've discontinued. Is it just me or do these companies consistently discontinue the best colors?
