on saleDiamine Deep Magenta - Ink Sample

One of my favorite colors so far. It just jumps out of my tomoe river paper in my Bond notebook!

Really beautiful color, light enough that you can really see the magenta, but dark enough that it reads easily and useful in many different situations.

I decided a few months ago to try a magenta ink for the upcoming Spring and Summer seasons. In trying to find one, I ran into a lot of pink-heavy inks (which was NOT what I was looking for). Lo and behold, I happened upon Diamine Deep Magenta (don't let the deep fool you) and I am so glad I did. This is a true magenta and looks great on all colors of paper, from white to ivory to grey. In placing my order, I accidentally ordered 2 samples instead of one and in hindsight, I'm happy I did! I decided to eye-dropper convert my clear Kaweco Sport with this wonderful ink and use it exclusively for all my writing needs during the Spring and Summer. The flow is a bit drier than expected, although that could also be the pen. I will definitely be purchasing a bottle of this soon! It is a unique color and if you want to try something different, give Diamine Deep Magenta a chance: you'll be glad you did! 5 out of 5 stars!

I'm an editor and use a strong magenta to mark copyedits. I've tested this color in my Lamy Safari and I love it. I will be using it primarily in my Platinum Preppy for copy edits, but also for artwork doodles. I've never rated an ink in this way before, so pay most attention to my words an purpose in making your decision about it, not my ratings below. First ink color I chose myself, not what came in the pen. I don't' feel I can rate the value until I've used more than a sample, but a bottle is on my list for purchase for sure!

I love Diamine. Bought Deep Magenta and Chocolate Brown a while back for my repaired Sheaffer and I am beyond pleased with the color saturation and the shading. Now I hope to add another bottle or two to my collection.Brian offers great service and his newly added app on the website shows off the wonderful colors Diamine has to offer, so if you want to see what Diamine is all about, check it out and get a bottle!
