P.W. Akkerman Chinatown Red Ink

To mark our 100 years of existence, PW Akkerman introduced in 2010 his own ink line. This ink’s came in large 150 ml bottles, these large bottles are now completely sold out.
 
Due to the worldwide success of this unique bottle we decided to continue, but now with a smaller sized bottle with a content of ca 60 ml. The new bottles will be available in the same 31 colors as before. 

The Akkerman inks have been given names related to the city The Hague. For example: KoninginneNach-Blauw, Binnenhof Blues, Shocking Blue, Parkpop Purper or/and Rood Haags Pluch.

P.W. Akkerman Chinatown Red evokes images of the vivid reds you see in The Hague. It's a saturated red but not too difficult to clean, and although it does not show much in the way of shading, its brightness and vibrancy make it eye-catching. I typically recommend this if someone is looking for a bright/classic red. It is slightly on the orange side but for the most part, I think it's a pretty clean red. Not too difficult to clean but be careful where it lands!
