If you haven't already noticed, I like flex nibs. Especially Waterman flex nibs. Especially this Waterman music flex nib. I also really like Sailor Jentle Sky High ink and I'm really bummed that Sailor discontinued it (and I am skeptical whether Souten will be a replacement for it. Le sigh.).
I love this nib because it really highlights the shading and sheen of just about every ink I've ever used with it so far. Also: crazy delectable ink pooling.
Check out my review of the
music nib here, as well as my
music nib post if you're curious about music nibs!
wow!
ReplyDeleteI too love Sky High. The base color isn't the same, but there's a LE Kobe Ink (made by Sailor) called Gogh Cobalt that kind of evokes a similar spirit to Sky High. Moreso than Souten, I think.
ReplyDeleteThat looks very dark for Sky High--I love it. Maybe it's the music nib? Do you find it to look very different with a narrower nib (I had it in my Safari with a 1.1mm nib).
ReplyDeleteThat is some beautiful ink and nibbage! Thanks so much Azizah (and happy birthday!)
ReplyDeleteHa.. turns out *someone* no names mentioned... inked my pen with what they thought was Sky High... it's just Sailor Blue in the end. Good eye. Sorry for the misrepresentation!
ReplyDeleteThank you Robert!
ReplyDeleteIt must have been Lord Windermere. :)
ReplyDeleteLovely, such beautiful detail. Always on the lookout for good lettering nibs, this now high on my wishlist.
