Birmingham Pen Co. - Chicken Coop

(Birmingham Pen Co. - Chicken Coop, swatched on a Col-O-Ring swatch card (design is a Yoseka Stationery stamp).

I’m on a Birmingham inks kick - ever since I used Airline from their delicates line, I’ve been obsessed with the brand.

Chicken Coop is a lovely orange-y brown colour. I describe it as the border between espresso and the crema, when it goes from that dark to that velvety cream colour.

Writing Sample

The ink, so far to me, has a bit of shading. However, this writing sample is using a fine size nib. I think it deserves a chance in a medium - just to see if we get a lot more shading out of it. Because I’m a ho for shading.

It does write nicely though, flow seems medium of the aisle for me :)
