Ferris Wheel Press - The Purple Jade Rabbit | 2023 Limited Edition
(Ferris Wheel Press - The Purple Jade Rabbit, swatched on a Col-O-Ring swatch card (design is a Yoseka Stationery stamp).
So, this one’s been in my collection for a bit - the swatches colour corrected long ago too. But for whatever reason, I haven’t gotten around to it until now. Admittedly, I was fiending after the ink when it first came out. The packaging is super stunning, especially what’s on the bottle. The colour is pretty too - a light purple with silver shimmer. It does have some shading as well, which I’m a huge fan of.
However, with the paleness of the ink, it is a biiiiiit on the dry side (even for me), and can be much too pale in anything smaller than a broad nib.
But, let’s take a look at some ink swatches.

Writing Sample
Here in the writing sample, I’m using a double broad Kaweco sport. The ink is pale, but still legible. I definitely wouldn’t put it into a smaller nib, but I think it’s fine in a broad. I actually find it quite similar to FWP Little Robinia, but a bit darker. I looove the colour of both, though I wish it was more suitable for daily use.
