Ink Review #2535: Papier Plume Forget Me Not

/

Papier Plume Forget Me Not is from the Standard collection. You can find this ink for sale at most retailers including Vanness Pens. Thanks to the reader who sent this ink in for review!

The color:

Forget Me Not is a royal blue.

*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 a little bit of shading.

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: 40 seconds

Water resistance: Medium

Feathering: None

Show through: Medium

Bleeding: None

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

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

Comparison Swabs:

Forget Me Not is a little less saturated than Pelikan Edelstein Sapphire. Click here to see the blue inks together.

Longer Writing:

I used a Pelikan M200 Blue Marbled with a medium nib on a Taroko Enigma notebook. The ink has an average flow.

Overall, this is a lovely royal blue. There are some similar inks out there, so it’s not a must-have, but a good average ink.
