Ink Review #2505: Wearingeul Daddy Long Legs

Wearingeul Daddy Long Legs is from the World Literature collection. You can find this ink for sale at most retailers including Vanness Pens.

The color:

Daddy Long Legs is a baby pink with gold shimmer.

*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 an average amount of shimmer.

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: 20 seconds

Water resistance: Low

Feathering: None

Show through: Medium

Bleeding: None

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

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

Comparison Swabs:

Daddy Long Legs is cooler toned than Tono & Lims Burma Tourmaline. Click here to see the pink inks together.

Longer Writing:

I used a Diplomat Aero Antique Rose with a broad nib on a Taroko Enigma notebook. The ink has a dry flow.

Overall, this ink is too pale in the smaller nib sizes for me. It’s even too pale in the broad nib in cursive, but it’s a bit darker with printing.
