This is an absolutely beautiful ink! I have it in my Pilot Metropolitan pen with an italic nib and am using it to write in my Christmas cards. It’s a new favorite!

Great ink!! Flows well, not too wet and dries quickly. Deep rich color. This is my first bottle of Krishna inks and for sure won't be my last.

Krishna Super Rich inks are some of my favorites! I have purchased several, and Vaikhari is my favorite of those I’ve tried thus far. It sheens different colors, and is just beautiful. They are a little thicker then most inks and dry quickly, IMO, but in wet writing pens they work beautifully.

I bought this ink because of the iconic design of the bottle. But the ink itself is totally amazing! It lays down as a dark blue that dries with a deep red to purple sheen on top of it. Even in a writing sample with an extra fine nib, the red sheen is evident. Its very wet, flows smoothly, and produces wonderful shading effects as well. Unpacking the bottle after it’s long trip from India results in some errant ink on your hands; why exactly I don’t know as it did not leak. But there is a bit of a film on the bottle itself that will fill a paper towel with blue ink when it is wiped off. The neck of the bottle contains a hard plastic stopper and a plastic film as well to prevent leaking; both of these will be inky when first removed. Once that bit of caretaking is done, it’s good to go!

This Paakezah blue ink is intense. A rich blue “super-sheener” with a fuchsia pink sheen reminiscent of Organics Studio “Nitrogen”. I like the fact that the sheen doesn’t overpower the blue. (on Tomoe, Crane, Original Mill or Rhodia) Flows beautifully and dries fairly quickly. Very little smearing afterwards. A winner! Love the bottle design and inner plastic lid as well.

This is a Krishna ink from India and is quite the value. Lyrebird is a product line that seems to be more appropriate for use in more formal settings such as offices and for writing on common paper. The Water Green can be deceiving because it is much more teal and says on the label Ebony Green. Not a classic green but a lovely darker teal that works well on the page. For those unfamiliar with the brand, this would be a wonderful introduction because you can always get the more intense colors later. Really nice color and value.

i loooove love moonview. it's so sheeny and shiny. i wouldn't recommend putting this in a nice pen, (i use jinhao's for this) but i like mixing different inks with moonview for some very cool effects. one of my faves was about 70% pilot blue black, 5-10% platinum carbon black, and 20-25% moonview. it gave a super strange midnight blue with a crazy white-red sheen. love it!
moonview, on its own, also works really well in flex pens and stubs. basically anything that writes a bold, wet line. delicious.

Great for mixing the colors in the guide that Krishna sends as part of the kit, but it's much more difficult than it appears to make a "custom" color that's "between" their swatches. I mean, it takes 3 hours to make a Caribbean blue/green! You'd think with a light green swatch provided and a pool-blue swatch provided... it would be simple... but, no.

This is a good ink and one I would consider high quality.
My only issue with it is not so much the ink itself but the color that was portrayed in it's advertising.
It show a heave look of red, which it is not. It is very dark blue with a potential for red sheen. It does have the red sheen when you angle your view. To me it is much like Organics Studio "Nitrogen."
But if you like that it would please you.
