What's Your Signature Color?

[senzen]

Tsuyu Kusa.

[Orpilorp]

The gold standard:

Parker Quink with Solv-X in blue.

[dannyboy]

Brown--usually Herbin Lie de The, but currently I'm liking the new Pelikan Edelstein Smoky Quartz.

[aeba]

Never had a colour which my ex-colleagues would instantly recognize. But used to sign with basic blues. Then got into Diamine Oxblood. That evolved to dark blues like Diamine blue velvet. Right now I am on either GvFC moss green or Sailor Kiwa-guro as both inks should be able to resist time.

[NicolausPiscator]

An interesting question... never red, never green, never yellow but sometimes Herbin Perle noire and usually Sailor Jentle Ink blue black... because the printer pints black and I want my signature to directly appear original.

[NicolausPiscator]

[...] Right now it's Pilot blue-black, as I have a large bottle of it. 350 milliliters of ​inky goodness, and I've only used about 90. Anyone sees that color, they automatically know it's me.

 

I think I really - as a blue black aficionado - should try out the Pilot blue-black...

[VivienR]

​Purple!

Like Sailor Kobe Sannomiya Panse, Diamine Imperial Purple, Lamy Dark Lilac... Obviously I use different colors as well, but purple is my favorite color.

I switch pens and ink a lot. If I had to pick one color, it would be Sailor Shigure for sure

[Bookman]

My signature color shakes out to Waterman Bleu Sérénité on one end and Sailor Jentle Blue/Platinum Blue-Black/Pilot Blue-Black on the other with the epicenter somewhere around Akkerman#4.

No specified ink. but blue, definitely blue.

 

Most of my person stuff are blue, ink included O.o

[arrScott]

Noodler's Midway Blue. It's been the one ink I pretty much always have in a pen, and the ink I most often use when writing things others will see. Though this may be changing; Oster Tranquility is lately becoming my go-to everyday ink.

Elegant and professional. I should probably follow your fine example.

[NicolausPiscator]

Ouf! Today Rouge hématite (Herbin) becaus I had forgotten my pen case at home and my pen for corrections was the only available pen... A very interesting experience... I'll try to abstain from it... because it didn't feel good.

[jmccarty3]

I have too many favorite colors, but right now (at the office) I'm using Platinum Blue-Black in an Izumo with a fine nib. I really do prefer it to the Pilot, although it's very hard to find right now except in cartridges.

[ReadyFireAim]

PR Black Cherry

Very close to PR Chocolate except a touch of red.

[BrassRatt]

Purple.

Private Reserve Purple Mojo, for several years in my daily-use work pen.

(Edison Collier with Richard Binder Itali-Fine, on Tomoe River "white" notebooks).

[Runnin_Ute]

Right now I have four pens inked with a darkish red right now.

 

Blackstone Uluru Red

Robert Oster Astorquiza Rot

Diamine Merlot

Levenger Pomegranate

Love D Merlot and L Pomegranate. Excellent choices!

[pajaro]

Whatever is in the pen.

[JakobS]

People I work with would probably recognize that whatever I have written is with an unusual color than most pens produce, more so than any signature color. The ink that i am always satisfied with coming back to is Diamine Umber. The ink that I hope gets the most notice is Diamine Orange....
