Ink Review: Cult Pens Chichen Itza Wonders of the World series (Diamine Inks exclusive)

Today I’m reviewing Cult Pens Chichén Itzá ink, one of their exclusive inks made by Diamine Inks. It is one of a series of inks inspired by modern Wonders of the World and by ‘modern’ they mean still in existence. This is what Cult Pens says about this ink:

“Chichen Itza was a pre-Columbian city constructed by the Mayans in modern day Mexico. Once a major focal point in the Northern Maya Lowlands, Chichen Itza is one of the largest cities built by the Mayans and is believed to have been one of the mythical great cities (Tollans) referred to in later Mesoamerican literature. Chichen Itza is a beautiful blue-grey inspired by the Grey Limestone blocks used to construct the ancient pyramids, temples, columned arcades and other stone structures found at Chichen Itza.”

Pelikan Edelstein Olivine Ink of the Year 2018

Pelikan Edelstein Olivine is a dark green dye based ink, that leans quite blue. It could be used as a standard daily green ink. I agree with other reviewers when they say it isn’t necessarily the Olivine shade we were expecting, and I wish it had been less blue and more yellow, but as it is, it’s still a very nice ink to use. I find all of the Edelstein inks I’ve tried to be very nicely lubricated inks that flow very well across the page.

Ink Review: Robert Oster NYC – LE NYC Pen Show 2022

I received this ink as a sample from a friend and believe it’s the Limited Edition ink issued at the 2022 New York Pen Show.

It’s a turquoise/sky blue ink that leans more blue than green and is quite similar to several other Robert Oster sky blue type ink colours.
