Ink Review #2064: Dominant Industry Apple Blossom

Let’s take a look at Dominant Industry Apple Blossom from the Dominant Industry Pearl Collection. Thanks to Yoseka for sending this ink over for review!

The color:

Apple Blossom is a bright magenta pink with shimmer.

*For my swab cards I use a Col-o-ring by Skylab Letterpress, a medium Pilot Ishime and a Mabie Todd Swan.

Swabs:

In large swabs on Tomoe River paper the ink has lots of silver shimmer.

Writing samples:

*For my writing samples I use:

• EF Pilot Vanishing Point

• F, M, B Pilot Ishime

• Vintage Mabie Todd Swan (flex nib)

• Rhodia Goalbook

• Taroko Enigma notebooks (68gsm TR)

• Leuchtturm A5

• Pen & Gear Paper from Walmart

Dry time: 30 seconds

Water resistance: Low

Feathering: None

Show through: Medium

Bleeding: None

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

On 20 lb copy paper the ink had some feathering and some bleeding.

Comparison Swabs:

Apple Blossom is similar to Diamine Electric Pink. Click here to see the pink inks together.

Longer Writing:

I used a Sailor Pro Gear Sparkling Pink with a broad nib on a Taroko Enigma notebook. The ink had an average flow.

Overall, I enjoyed this ink. It’s a lovely color and I didn’t have any issues with clogging.
