Cult Pens Christine Exclusive By Diamine

[Bhavna]

I was sent this glorious ink to review by Diamine. What a gorgeous, deep colour with a vibrant sheen for those who love it!

Oh no !! Not another ink I have to get immediately.

Thanks for these great reviews. Do you know if Philip and Christine are available in 30ml bottles ?

Cheers

You're welcome. I'm sorry, I don't know the answer. Having just had a look on their website, only Robert (Bob) and Maureen (Mo) are showing as available in 30 ml, I am assuming the others will be shortly. Hope that helps. Edited August 22, 2019 by Bhavna

Oh that does look nice (I gather that both Christine and Phillip are new).

Thanks for the review. And, well, not.... I haven't tried a bunch of samples of various Diamine inks as it is (I had a bunch of samples of the Shimmer inks to try, and then recently picked up 3 of the Guitar Series line).

This is another great review. I'm not sure I would get this one as I like it better in the swatch than in the writing. At least on my screen it looks pretty black.

They are indeed, and a lot of fun too. I haven't tried the Guitar series yet. How did you find them?

Thank you. It can be difficult getting the right balance on screen. It isn't that dark in real life. The pen used makes a difference, in my case its a wet nib which lays down more ink which had dried rich and dark. Do try a sample if you can, it is beautiful.

Haven't had a chance to try any of them yet. I went on an ink buying spree recently and other stuff got loaded up in pens first (one of the others being Diamine Earl Grey, which so far is behaving nicely in my Sailor Pro-Gear Slim with the zoom nib, but I haven't really had a chance to put the ink through its paces yet, especially with the exotic nib...).

Me too, if it helps...! I do love Earl Grey, such a lovely ink. Very gentle when one needs time out from the world and colours feel too boisterous.
