Diamine - Walnut | Inkvent 2023
For day fifteen of the Diamine Inkvent 2023, we’re back to a standard ink. Today’s is brown!
Let’s get into it.
Walnut is a standard dark brown ink with some green sheening. In the swatches I don’t see any shading, but it’s definitely present in the writing sample (which is what you’d be doing majority of the time anyways.
I find the green sheening to be present in a fair amount of dark brown inks - Kopi O Kaw and Pick Me Up both from Diamine, as well as Land of Shangri-La from Ferris Wheel Press are some I can think of. While the sheening shows in various degrees, I find it a peculiar pairing to see together (though I’m sure there’s a chemistry reason for the pairing).
While the writing sample seems quite nice (especially with the shading), I just don’t find the ink to be a unique enough to draw me to it. At some point in an ink roulette I’ll use it :)
