I was very happy with my first order of this stationary. Interesting and attention getting. Not for everyday use, however when it fits, it's great.

dholik8503Thanks @dholik8503 and @NobodysPerfect for your useful comments about this stationery set!
Can any other current owners of these cards and/or writing paper speak to your experience with it? Are there other inks to suggest or recommend in addition to the Iroshizuku line? Even more crucially, any to avoid? I'd imagine broad and stub nibs would work well on this more textured paper but are fines and extra-fines unworkable? Did any of you need to use a Japanese writing mat or board? Lastly, what kinds of drying times might we expect, and does the paper provide a good medium for the shading of ink?
Thanks in advance. I've been tempted by this set during earlier drops but always resisted. But I guess I'm looking for reasons to say yes though I have stationery to spare just now! :o))

ShadowphdI would sacrifice a card and try out the palate of inks you currently like. I often use Diamine Red Dragon and Oxblood, Graf von Faber Castel Royal Blue, Deep Sea Green, and Hazelnut Brown, Caran d'ache Idyllic Blue, Noodler's Black Swan In Australian/English Roses....the list goes on and on. As you can see, I am a serial ink junkie. There is always one more ink to try. 😊
