June Bride is a beautiful turquoise blue.

Swabs:

Ink large swabs there is some pretty shading but no sheen.

Let's take a look at how the ink behaves on fountain pen friendly papers: Rhodia, Tomoe River, and Leuchtturm.

Longer writing:

I used a broad Pelikan M600 Turquoise on Tomoe River 68gsm. The ink had an average flow.

Overall, I really love this blue. It’s a gorgeous color, well behaved, and even shows a little bit of shading.
