Ink Review #379: Tono & Lims Wings of The Sea

Today I will be reviewing the second ink in the T&L Beyond the Horizon series. Wings of the Sea is a bright sky blue.

Swabs:

This ink had low shading and medium red sheen. The color is a bright blue that is a more saturated version of Tono & Lims: Welcome YOME! and Lamy Vibrant Turquoise. It is a close duplicate of Sailor Studio 441.

To my surprise, this ink had an average to wet flow (usually Tono & Lims inks are on the dry side). I loved the red sheen and thought it added a bit of ‘pop’ to the color.

Overall: This is a great blue that sheens. It would be a great addition as a summer ink.
