## Description

Bottle Style May Vary, May Come in Glass or Plastic

Review: Nice, sepia-gold color - As folk have pointed out, this ink does not start out purple, it only gets that way when you soak the paper in water. I mean you really have to get the paper wet so the yellow runs and it looks like the letters are on fire. Hence the name. For such a dark purple after it gets wet, it starts out a really light sepia. Personally, I like it, and it's always cool telling folk I have color-changing ink! Something more practical I discovered is that it works fairly well as a gold wash. I have been painting some miniatures lately, and, since I don't have any gold paint right now, I had to mix my own, with varying results; the first time came out fine, the second time was too yellow. Well, I just went over all the gold with one of my Parker pens with Rome Burning in it, and it looks fabulous. Note, if you get the ink on the paint wet, it just washes off; no color-changing action; or at least not the type you might have wanted. Also note, if you go this route for "painting" minis, you are going to want to have put down at least a light base coat of paint, as the ink will just ball up on bare plastic.
Review: Another great color - My all time favorite ink is El Lawrence. This is a nice variation on the “used motor oil” color used to describe El Lawrence. It’s not nearly as dark but it’s a fun color. I use it for note taking. Doesn’t dry super fast and is not very waterproof. Best on something like Rhodia or other paper known to be fountain pen friendly. Not a great choice for someone new to fountain pens unless it’s to explore but it makes for a fun alternative to the typical black and blue. If you do “wash” it, the green/brown goes away and only light purple remains. Has never clogged any of my pens and so far isn’t difficult to clean up. According to Nathan Tardiff who created it. "Rome Burning” has a bulletproof patrician core color of Caesar’s purple with the colors of the inferno that wash away from it with excess liquidity. As it dries there are shades of brass that can actually shine on some paper grades and can halo the darker core when using the right nib/feed combination. On very absorbent cellulose paper the patrician core can be seen in the center as the fire surrounds it – as if an eclipse of the sun.”

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Love this color!
*by R***E on November 4, 2022*

It writes as a gorgeous kelp/yellow brown and if soaked in water the yellow floats off and only a deep royal purple stays. It's an anti-forgery ink but it's also great for art!! As always the product was just as described and noodler makes an amazing ink that stays consistent through the bottle doesn't get funky and flows perfectly.
