New pen, two new inks & pages in my ink dossier A little haul from @Atlas Stationers Adding some new treasures to my collection: Esterbrook Estie Fountain Pen • Seaglass (Fine Nib) Colorverse Korea Special Series • Dokdo (15ml) Dominant Industry • Seaweed (25ml) New Ink Dossier pages + swatches Every ink has a story, and I love documenting the little details behind each one Now help me decide… which ink should go in my new Estie? Dokdo or Seaweed? I've admired Esterbrook pens for such a long time, so finally adding one to my collection feels really special. I chose the Estie in Seaglass because I instantly fell in love with the soft, muted green. It's elegant, it's timeless and the color immediately made me think of the crystal clear ocean water. I also love the fine nib because that's what I naturally gravitate towards with everyday journaling. It gives me the crisp, clean lines while still letting me appreciate the ink's shading and character. I picked up the Colorverse Korea Special Series ink. As someone who's born in South Korea, releases like this always feel a little more meaningful to me. Dokdo is inspired by the water surrounding the islands. I love how it shifts between a bright marine teal and a deeper ocean blue, depending on how much ink sits on the page. It was designed to mimic the way the sea changes in depth. I also noticed this subtle sheen beginning to appear in the wetter areas, which adds more depth to the color. Dominant Industry - Seaweed This ink is part of their "A Log of Atlantis" collection. Seaweed represents the dark, lush vegetation growing in its depths. Not your average green; rather, an original pigment color, Dominant Industry pulls its inks with reflective, translucent pigments meant to catch the light - the brand calls this pursuit "bottled light." A murky, yellow-leaning kelly green - has good shading, not too wet, not ready. Let me know in the comments which ink belongs in my new Estie? Dokdo or Seaweed? Thanks for watching and I'll see you in the next one. Bye
