Today’s ink is Teranishi Guitar Innocent Mauve. This ink was sent in by a reader and as soon as I tried it I knew I had to review it ASAP! You can find this ink for sale at Vanness Pens. Thanks to the reader who sent this ink in for review!

The color:

Innocent Mauve is a deep purple mauve.

*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 just a little bit of green sheen.

Writing samples:

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

Longer Writing:

I used a Lamy Al-star, with a medium nib on a Taroko Enigma notebook. The ink has an average flow, and has some wonderful shading.

Overall, I love this color! It’s a little unusual, but still fabulous. I love the shading, and it has a good average flow. I’m adding a full bottle to the top of my wish list.
