Today we will be reviewing a stunning golden-yellow ink by Callifolio. Heure Doree translates to the “golden hour”, which refers to the hour after sunrise or before sunset.

This ink had high shading and no sheen. The color shades wonderfully, similar to Robert Oster Honey Bee.

This ink had an average, but well-lubricated, flow. The shading was even and consistent.

Overall: I absolutely love this ink—-in fact, it may be in my top favorites from L’Artisan Pastellier. I love the warm tones, flow, and beautiful shading. I definitely recommend trying out a sample.
