Ink Review #439: Tono & Lims Chiba: Brimming with Vitality

Today I will be reviewing Tono & Lims Chiba: Brimming with Vitality. This is a sunny yellow from their Prefecture Line.

This ink had no shading or sheen. It is a warm gold that is an exact match to Rohrer & Klingner Helianthus Sunflower.

This ink had an average flow. The color would be great for drawing, and is passable in terms of writing.

Overall: This is a golden yellow that would be better suited for art. It is legible, but may be difficult to read with longer writing.
