rich color!

this is like old time leather ala 70's or maybe a chiffon vanilla cupcake exterior perfect for washing over drawings as an underpaint/color.

A sturdy brown ink

A good utility ink. Warm colour. It's a bit less red and more brown than pictured on my apple screens.

Steeped in goodness!

For a year I have ignored this little bottle. I had other browns on my mind. Until someone sent me a lovely little letter using this ink and then I was hooked. I could not believe that richness such as this could come in such a small bottle. It truly exceeded my expectations and I immediately ordered not just one for me but one for my niece as well. Love the vintage feel to this one too!

It has a ton of little shades in it that with my fountain pen strokes look like warm oak wood ; love it!!

Worst customer service ever

I wanted to place this order on July 1st as a birthday present to myself, and it took two weeks of mostly being ignored to answer a question about an error in my cart. I finally got answers (mostly to the tune of 'its not our fault') and placed the order on the 12th of July. Customer service has been largely ignoring me except to periodically weigh in, make more excuses and thank me for my patience. I was very nearly out of patience and considering disputing my credit card charge when it finally arrived the afternoon of July 31st.

The product is of the quality I expect from Ferris Wheel, but the customer service was appalling.
