Van Dieman’s Sailor’s Delight on Maruman Mnemosyne

Ink

Red sky at night, sailors’ delight.
Red sky at morning, sailors’ warning.

Wikipedia

Sailor’s Delight, from the discontinued Midnight Series, takes inspiration from the rhyme above. Although the ink is no longer in production, you can still find it being sold at some retailers (as of July 2022). The ink is a bright orangey-red with a wet flow.

On Maruman paper,

• Shading: Yes
• Sheen: Nil
• Feathering: Nil
• Bleedthrough: Nil

Writing Sample

This is written with a TWSBI ECO-T medium nib.

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