Ink Review #2766: Ferris Wheel Press Mulberry Majesty

/

Let’s take a look at Ferris Wheel Press Mulberry Majesty. You can find this ink for sale at most retailers including Vanness Pens.

The color:

Mulberry Majesty is a medium mauve 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 rose gold shimmer.

Writing samples:

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

*For my writing samples I use:

Dry time: 40 seconds

Water resistance: Low

Feathering: None

Show through: Medium

Bleeding: None

Other properties: medium shading, no sheen, and rose gold shimmer.

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

Comparison Swabs:

Mulberry Majesty is a little bit more red than Diamine Frosted Orchid. Click here to see the purple inks together.

Longer Writing:

I used a Diplomat Aero Antique Rose with a broad nib on a Taroko Enigma notebook. The ink has an average flow.

Overall, I really love this color. I do wish it didn’t have shimmer since I prefer non-shimmer inks, but the rose gold works well with the base color. I don’t find it to be as dry as most Ferris Wheel Press inks which is lovely.
