Ink Review #246: Diamine 150th Anniversary Lilac Night

Today I will be reviewing one of Diamine’s 150th Anniversary inks. Lilac Night is a dusky bluish purple.

Swabs:

This ink had high shading and no sheen. The color is a faded purple with blue undertones.

Tomoe River Paper 52 gsm

Dry Time/Water Resistance:

Limonaired Ink Test Card

This ink had a moderate dry time of 30 seconds and low water resistance.

Writing Sample:

Tomoe River Paper 52 gsm

This ink had a regular and consistent flow. I did not experience any hard starts or skips. The color is easy to read and muted enough for taking notes.

Overall: I found this to be a pleasant and well behaved ink. The color is not up my alley as it is slightly too dark, so I won’t be purchasing a full sized bottle.
