Ink Review #25: Diamine 150th Anniversary Blue Velvet

Today I will be reviewing another Diamine ink. This is a vivid, electric blue which reminds me of the 1980s! Diamine Blue Velvet is part of the Anniversary Colection which celebrates 150 years of the brand.

This ink had low shading and sheen with a moderate dry time. This is a true blue which does not have any green or purple hues. It is easily the brightest color I have reviewed so far!

This ink was well-behaved when used for longer writing. The color is classic and stunning, yet not too extravagant for office use or note-taking.

Overall: This is a beautiful, saturated blue that performs well across all nib sizes.
