Ink Review #2368: Wearingeul Othello

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

The color:

Othello is a cool tone brown.

*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 pretty 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: 30 seconds

Water resistance: Medium

Feathering: None

Show through: Medium

Bleeding: None

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

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

Comparison Swabs:

Othello is more cool-toned than Diamine Dusted Truffle. Click here to see the brown inks together.

Longer Writing:

I used a Kaweco Al-sport Red with a medium nib on a Taroko Enigma notebook. The ink has an averagae flow.

Overall, I love the unusual color. It’s well-behaved and interesting.
