Vanness Pens occasionally releases some in-house inks. Let’s take a look at three of them today. You can find these inks for sale at Vanness Pens.

Swabs:

Left to right: Hissy Fit, Lake Water and Fountain Pen Day 2022.

Writing samples:

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

Dry Time: 30-60 seconds

Water Resistance: Low

Feathering: None

Show through: Medium

Bleeding: None

Other properties: medium shading.

On Walmart Pen + Gear copy paper there was some feathering in every nib size as well as some bleeding.

Hissy Fit is similar to Ferris Wheel Press Double Raspberry.

Lake Water is a little more green than Birmingham Glassmith.

FPD 2022 is a little lighter than PenBBS 160.

All three had slightly wet flows.

Overall, I enjoyed all three of these. The flows were slightly wet which I love, and I love all three colors. You can’t go wrong with any of them.
