Ink Review #2857: Inkebara Orange

/

Let’s take a look at Inkebara Orange from the Standard collection. You can find this ink for sale at most retailers, my sample came from Vanness Pens.

The color:

Orange is a medium orange.

*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 is more red where it pooled.

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 on 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: low shading, no sheen, and no shimmer.

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

Comparison Swabs:

Orange is closest to Robert Oster Peach. Click here to see the orange inks together.

Longer Writing:

I used an Edison Collier Persimmon Swirl with a medium nib on a Taroko Enigma notebook. The ink has a dry flow.

Overall, I could take or leave this ink. It’s a nice color but the flow is too dry for me. I prefer to use Robert Oster Peach, which is a similar color.
