Ink Review #305: Colorverse #4 Einstein Ring

Today's Colorverse ink is #4 Einstein Ring from Season 1 Spaceward. Thanks to Pen Chalet for sending over samples for review.

The color:

Einstein Ring is a magenta-purple.

Swabs:

In large swabs you can see a little bit darkening around the edges.

Writing samples:

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

Dry time: 30 seconds

Water resistance: Low

Feathering: None

Show through: Medium

Bleeding: Low-there was just a little bit of bleeding, mainly in the flex nib. 

Other properties: low shading, no sheen, and no shimmer. 

On 20 pound copy paper the ink behaved well, no issues that I noticed.

Comparison Swabs:

Ink swabs for comparison, left to right (top to bottom for mobile RSS): Pen Saijiki Ebizome, Colorverse Einstein Ring, and Pilot Iroshizuku Yama-budo. Click here to see the Colorverse inks together. Yama-budo seems the closest in color.

Longer writing: 

I used a medium Pelikan M605 White Transparent on Tomoe River paper. The ink had an average flow. 

Overall, I love the color of this ink. It's a lovely bright magenta, with a little bit of shading, and well behaved too.
