Ferris Wheel Press Sophie Charger Set
/Ferris Wheel Press does a great job at separating their collections into charger sets-3 x 5ml ink vials. The Sophie charger set contains 3 inks from the Fall 2020 collection. Thanks to Phidon Pens for sending this set over for review!
Swabs:
Left to right: Beaver Dam, Goose Poupon and Moss Park Green
Writing samples:
Let's take a look at how the ink behaves on fountain pen friendly papers: Rhodia, Tomoe River, and Leuchtturm.
Dry Time: 30-40 seconds
Water Resistance: Low-Medium
Feathering: None
Show through: Medium
Bleeding: None
Other properties: low-medium shading, no sheen and no shimmer.
On Staples 24 lb copy paper there was lots of feathering in every nib size as well as some bleeding.
Comparison Swabs:
Beaver Dam is less saturated than Birmingham Infield Brown.
Moss Park Green is lighter than Sailor Ink Studio 370.
Goose Poupon is lighter than Robert Oster Muddy Bucket.
Longer Writing:
I used a Taroko Odyssey notebook, the first two inks had an average flow and Moss Park Green had a dry flow.
Overall, I enjoyed all three of these inks, but Moss Park Green can be too light in the smaller nib sizes. Goose Poupon is my favorite despite the less than flattering name. All three are great colors for the fall season.
