COLOR
Robert Oster Evening Sapphire is a really lovely mid-cobalt blue. This blue is one of my favorites!
CHARACTER
This ink has a moderate range of shading and no sheen
CONSISTENCY
This is a slightly dry ink with a decently quick dry time. In my experience it's a well behaved ink but in tighter nibs it can contribute to some skipping. It very rarely gives me any trouble with bleedthrough or feathering.
Nebula, Clairefontaine, and Tomoe River paper
CONCLUSION
I really love this ink. It's a lovely dusky, slightly desaturated blue and behaves well for most papers. I occasionally have some trouble with flow in already problematic nibs, but even that trouble is very slight. It just tends to work better in proven wet nibs.
