Ink Review #807: Galen Leather x Diamine Cappadocia

This week we are diving back into our Galen Leather inks! Today we will be reviewing Galen Leather x Diamine Cappadocia, a deep hunter’s green with gold shimmer.

I thought this ink bottle was very pretty and antique-looking.

Swabs:

Cappadocia is a deep medium green with high shading, red sheen, and gold shimmer. It’s a perfect hunter’s green.

Cappadocia was well saturated with an even flow of glitter. I did not have any hard starts or skips with this ink (as I usually do with glitter inks).

Overall: Cappadocia is a beautiful hunter’s green. I loved everything about this ink - the packaging, color, and shading! I definitely recommend trying out a sample if you can.
