Ink Review #451: L'Artisan Pastellier Callifolio Equinoxe (6)

Today I will be reviewing Callifolio Equinoxe (6)—not to be confused with Equinoxe (5)! This is a medium teal.

This ink had medium shading and sheen. This is a oceany teal with green-leaning undertones.

I found that this ink had a consistent, wet flow. It worked quite well in my <MF> Sailor, which is generally finicky about inks. The shading and sheen provide a lovely depth to the color.

Overall: This is a well-behaved, smooth teal. I was impressed with the ink in a fine nib, and have no doubt that it would be equally amazing in broader nibs!
