Ink Review #2470: Wearingeul Anne of Green Gables

Wearingeul Anne of Green Gables is from the World Literature collection. You can find this ink for sale at most retailers including Vanness Pens.

The color:

Anne of Green Gables is a bright red.

*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 some green sheen.

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: Low

Feathering: None

Show through: Medium

Bleeding: None

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

On 20 lb copy paper the ink had some feathering and a few dots of bleeding in the larger nib sizes.

Comparison Swabs:

Anne is closest to Kobe Luxury Red. Click here to see the red inks together.

Longer Writing:

I used a Pilot Vanishing Point Coral with a medium nib on a Taroko Enigma notebook. The ink has an average flow.

Overall, this is a nice red. It’s well behaved and the green sheen adds some character.
