On June 22, 2018 my Red Ripple Scriptorium Pens Custom (IM) joined its comrades when it was filled with Diamine 150th Anniversary Burgundy Royale. The pen was in use for 6 months and was emptied and cleaned on January 13, 2019, saying good-bye to its fellows.

Thoughts Before Filling

I was given six ink samples for Father’s Day, and today I decided I want to try them all out! It’s been a while, too long, since I’ve used this pen, and I recall having used some burgundy ink in it before, so I thought I’d give that another shot.

Thoughts After Cleaning the Pen

I really enjoyed this ink, and might consider adding a bottle of it to my inventory. I don’t have many burgundy inks, but I feel inclined to spend more time with the ones I do have. It was a joy to use this pen. The size is comfortable in my hand. It just sits, effortlessly, allowing me to write. I was actually a tad sad to write it dry, but I did recently pick up a new bottle of ink in the burgundy spectrum, so it may return to service soon.
