Great Ink
Dr. Ph Martin's iridescent inks are an absolute pleasure to add to any calligraphy project. Their finish is so permanent and durable, and their sheen is unmatched. I buy a lot of my inks in stores, but this color is particularly difficult to find, so I am glad Paper & Ink Arts has me covered! As the other reviews state: shake (very) well before use, and keep your dropper free from clogs as best you can (I keep a straight pin for sewing with my inks so I can use it to ream out the barrel when it gets too gunky). This color is also really similar to a few other golds/yellows they make, so I was a little disappointed when I added it to my collection, but it is beautiful and looks fabulous, as expected!

Great Ink...But A Little Redundant
I love Dr. Ph Martin's iridescent inks! They are an absolute pleasure to add to any calligraphy project. Their finish is so permanent and durable, and their sheen is unmatched. I now own all their iridescent colors and have managed to get pretty much all of them in stores. This color is particularly difficult to find though. I am glad Paper & Ink Arts has me covered—this was one of the final colors to complete my collection! I was a little disappointed to find that this blue is strikingly similar to the other two blues they make, but I do really appreciate having the complete collection, and I am sure I will find a day when I prefer this particular blue to the other near-identical blues they make. As the other reviews for these inks state: shake (very) well before use, and keep your dropper free from clogs as best you can (I keep a straight pin for sewing with my inks so I can use it to ream out the barrel when it gets too gunky).
