Ink
In 2019, the Fountain Pens UK Facebook group collaborated with Diamine to create two inks, Scribble Purple and Monboddo’s Hat. The inks are named after Scribble Monboddo, a purple ink lover who runs the Too Many Purples blog. Monboddo’s Hat is a ink colour inspired by Scribble Monboddo’s purple top hat.
The ink is a saturated dark purple with red undertones with a wet flow. On Leuchtturm1917 paper, there is little shading, no sheen, no feathering and some bleedthrough.
The ink left a ring of colour residue behind so cleaning is more involved than usual.

Below are a couple of photos of how it looks when it is written on both sides of the paper.
