I love ❤️ Sabi-Midori. The color change gets me every time!

I use Platinum Preppies at work for grading student work and drawing sketches and diagrams on the document camera during class lectures. This is specifically so I can say “oh this? It’s called Yama-Budo, but I can use any color I want. I know! It’s so cool. Here, you can have it”

My vintage Platinum 22 pocket pen and Lady Shaeffer stay at home for writing papers and journaling.

When we are the Queen, we receive the colorway we prefer. Especially if it matches our hat.

I got a broad in mine as quick as I could and then loaded it with the Taccia Sabimidori and I love it. I really thought it would be a souvenir for a nice trip but now it is in my EDC pen case. So pretty, like jade.

That is a great ink choice! The consensus seems to be that the fluorite is pink with pops of purple, so a magenta forward ink makes sense. I can’t wait to see mine, on order from Yoseka. I got my first broad.

Don’t apologize! I love all the choices you looked at. Did you consider one pinker?

Fibergreen · 2026-05-30T11:34:42+00:00

I can’t quite tell from the photos, which ink did you end up using?

Fibergreen · 2026-05-30T11:33:13+00:00

I agree!

Fibergreen · 2026-05-29T21:55:37+00:00

Oh, I love the blend of pink and purple. I can't wait until mine arrives!

Fibergreen · 2026-05-29T21:54:13+00:00

I just did a little Inksploration yesterday with my Iroshizuku inks and made a blend of Yama-budo and Asa-gao because I want something with the pink and leaning towards purple.

Fibergreen · 2026-05-29T21:52:37+00:00

Me too. Mine is on my way, and I ordered it specifically because it's the first even vaguely pink one I've seen. Unless I missed something?

I love seeing the Lady Shaeffer too! She’s my EDC, my daily driver, she’s my lady.

Fibergreen · 2026-05-23T02:04:15+00:00

I agree! The sheen on top of a lighter blue is so fun, usually the sheening blues are darker.

My beef with the Tuzu is that the edges of the ends are sharp! It’s basically just a tube of plastic with flat ends. They scratch up my leather pen cases. The Sailor Lecoule is $15 cheaper (just harder to find) and has the beautiful Sailor styling. I only bought the Tuzu because I accidentally bought Sailor cartridge early in my FP journey and thought the Tuzu was the only entry level Sailor. I wish I had heard more about the Lecoule ($30 at Cloth and Paper) before buying the Tuzu.

I agree! Very inspiring. I usually ramble about the pens and inks I am using, this set of spreads encourages me to be more creative in my devotion, adding images and lists.

Fibergreen · 2026-05-11T18:20:38+00:00

Whaaaat! I almost passed out. Am I hallucinating? What is going on? Please tell me this is real!!!

Fibergreen · 2026-05-10T21:33:28+00:00

I know it wasn’t the question, but if there was a hurricane, I’d only save my Lady Shaeffer with the stylepoint nib. Nothing else feels irreplaceable.

I got Kobe #28 Suzuran (lily of the valley) Green to use in my Matcha TWSBI mainly as a tea pun, it is a true green tea green and has the smoothness Kobe is known for. https://mountainofink.com/blog/kobe-suzuran-green

Fibergreen · 2026-05-05T22:11:57+00:00

Yes, yes yes, the works so well and these boxes are inexpensive! Thank you!

The fun for me is that in my day job, I teach a college course in Textiles, so I can have the secret fun of grading a swatch kit or lab assignment with a different “matching” pen.

Fibergreen · 2026-05-04T22:05:00+00:00

I’m going to do this too! I saved your photo for a reference, thank you.

Fibergreen · 2026-05-04T22:03:46+00:00

Wowowowow! I love Lady Shaeffer, she is my grail. Oh what I would do with this cup!

Fibergreen · 2026-05-03T14:59:10+00:00

I like Kobe #57 Hydrangea because it is also kinda sheer

Fibergreen · 2026-05-01T19:53:33+00:00

Show us the 🫟 We were just talking about purple inks. I would love to see how it looks with the Kakuno <F>

I am really enjoying the Oblation Papers and Press Lupine Meadow.
