I love gray inks, but this one goes far and beyond. The shades, the moods, the shimmer, the uplift! It is a well-behaved ink in a minimum F nib, but broader nibs give it more justice. And I also must be biased because I am a Shakespeare psycho-fan ;)
Truly enjoy this color, greenish gray with pink shimmer. I like it more on my Midori paper that's more beige than on my white Rhodia paper. I've used this ink with my glass dip pen and with my Brause dip pen with Brause nibs. The color is subtle but dark enough to read depending on the nib you use. With the Brause nibs, which are finer than the glass dip pen nib, the color comes through stronger.
This ink has also worked very well for drawing / sketching. For a watercolor look I've gone over sketching lines with a fine brush and just water, works very well.
In all a beautiful ink, the color can look subtle, but with a medium fountain pen nib, or with a fine Brause nib (like the Stenofeder or the Pfannenfeder) it looks stronger, if you want it to, and it doubles up as a great sketching tool for a watercolor-like effect.
This ink has been perfect for my journaling, where I occassionally do some drawing and doodling too.
Highly recommend!
