Ink Review #2738: Ferris Wheel Press Moonbeam Meadows

/

Today’s ink is Ferris Wheel Press Moonbeam Meadows from the Bestiary Series. You can find this ink for sale at most retailers including Vanness Pens.

The color:

Moonbeam Meadows is a pale lilac purple.

*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 it has green and pink shimmer.

Writing samples:

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

*For my writing samples I use:

Dry time: 30 seconds

Water resistance: Low

Feathering: None

Show through: Medium

Bleeding: None

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

On 20 lb copy paper the ink had feathering in all nib sizes and some bleeding.

Comparison Swabs:

Moonbeam Meadows is a little more red than Dream Inks Mermaid. Click here to see the purple inks together.

Longer Writing:

I used a Lamy Safari Pink Cliff with a medium nib on a Taroko Enigma notebook. The ink has a slightly dry flow.

Overall, this ink is a little interesting because it goes down more blue but dries purple. It’s a little drier than I prefer but I didn’t have any clogging issues.
