Leonardo Arborea Beech. A limited edition for Stilograph Corsani in faceted ebonite with a 14Kt #8 1.1 stub nib. It is a handsome pen with a wonderful nib. A joy to write with.

I didn't notice the dark outline around the blue letters.  Interesting.

Thanks!  Sleeek.

I'm using my new TWSBI Eco Heat. The orange is a really good color on this pen. I filled it in one try with Diamine Blood Orange. I like this ink! It is a dark orange-red or red-orange. It works well with the fine nib and the color is pretty nice. I got no bleeding or ghosting on this 85gsm paper. 

 

This is a terrible picture of both ink and pen, but I was never any good with a camera.

Thanks! I think the main color is black. It has green and purple that need very bright light - daylight is best - to bring them out.

Thanks Karmachanic 🙂👍  I've seen that thread.  I've been referring to that effect as "outlining".  

 

There seems to be 2 forms of it.  One is a sheen outline and the other is a darker ink outline.

I neglected to write a page yesterday, so I have to choose two pens to write about today and yesterday.

   I have to do the same. Might as well pick a third for my task list. It will be a colorful day to make up for the atmospheric river outside my door lately. I think I will use a Platinum short-long pen with hibiscus on it inked with their green, a no name Chinese stub with some shimmer, and a Sheaffer black tulle Lady with Sheaffer red. 
  Yesterday I used an Asvine V169 with Waterman Serenity (or Florida, forgot which bottle) Blue, and my Waterman desk pen with JIF Waterman’s Rouge Intense. I am going to try my hand at an ink review, but I’m a bit nervous about it.

@Penguincollector I’m sure you’ll do a great job in your ink review.
