This ink had no shading and lots of glitter. The color is well-saturated.

This was a wet ink with a consistent flow. The glitter was evenly distributed and flowed easily In my Jowo <M>. I found that this was a well-behaved, pleasant ink for writing. The silver sparkles evoke images of stars in the night sky.

Overall: This is a smooth, fantastic grey ink. It does have a longer dry time so I would be mindful of that.
