Ink

Robert Oster African Gold

  • Colour: I consider this to be yellow, but it’s a yellow-brown.
  • Special Attributes:
    • Shade: Yes, a great amount!
    • Sheen: None.
    • Shimmer: No.
  • Watercolour Usage: I like what happens when water is added to this ink. It’s nice to use with water and it almost can fool the eyes in to thinking there is pink in there somewhere.
  • Harkens to Mind: Sand, the earth beneath my garden.
  • Similar to: Less saturated version of Diamine Candlelight, and just like Diamine Golden Sands without the shimmer.
  • Expense: $18/50ml as of 2022.
  • Example: Elizabeth Taylor because I was watching Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf.

Verdict

This is one of the best gold inks I have, and I have become a big fan of gold inks in recent years. I keep it inked up in a Pilot 823.
