Mauve, a pale violet discovered by chemist William Perkin in 1856, revolutionized Victorian fashion. Smoky Mauve is a mature, refined version, touched by smoke and time, neither warm nor cool, neither feminine nor masculine. It’s a subtle violet shaped by realism and quiet emotion.
Describe by Diamine as suitable for fountain pens*, dip pens, brushes, and calligraphy tools, Forever Inks are ideal for journaling, creative writing, and expressive lettering. It is a very saturated ink that gives writing a strong visual presence while remaining durable and reliable over time.
*the Forever Inks line is mentioned as being suitable for fountain pens, this is a heavy pigmented & permanent ink - it can clog the feeder of the fountain pens, it can damage the gold plating of the nibs and cleaning it can take a long time with effects that may be permanent (staining fountain pen components). Our recommendation is to use it with caution is fountain pens that dont have complex filing systems and they dont come with a significant cost or sentimental value that is irreplaceable.
