Ink Review #630: Pineider Sepia

Hello everyone! These next few posts will focus on inks from Pineider. This is an Italian company that was founded in 1774. They offer a wide range of inks as well as pens, notebooks, and various stationery.

These samples were kindly sent from Pen Chalet. If you have time, I definitely recommend checking their website out. I used to spend many hours browsing their ink and pen collections.

Swabs:

This ink had medium shading and no sheen. It is a standard brown without any other undertones.

This ink had an average saturation and slightly dry flow.

Overall: I thought this color was rather bland. The ink was well behaved but I would have liked to see more shading.
