12 Days of Inkmas: Day 7 Pennonia Mustvörös

After I found a great green, I decided to search for a beautiful red. Again I hit up new-to-me ink brands and ended up ordering Pennonia Mustvörös (60mL for $13).

Mustvörös is Hungarian for young wine, and this red definitely leans toward wine colored. It went down almost a brick or blood red, but dried nicely into a more wine color. This one doesn’t have any sheen or shimmer, but it shades really nicely.

When I went looking for comparisons, I didn’t have anything that was super close. Kyo-No-Oto 6 Adzukiro was probably the closest. Birmingham Pen Co. Mt. Washington Sunset was close, but a little more orange (as was Duquesne Incline Red Station). I also looked at a few of the Mont Blanc reds, but those weren’t right either.

I’m always happy when I add an ink to the collection that doesn’t have an exact match since it’s a new shade to me!

  1. Hi Laura, just a small, small point out. Mustvörös is surely Hungarian, not Polish. But I really like and appreciate this review and all the others. Happy Christmas from Czech rep. 🙂
