Today I will be reviewing Kala Nostalgia Gemstone Sillimanite. Sillimanite was first discovered in 1824 and is used in glass factories. Interestingly, it was named the state mineral of Delaware!
Swabs:
This ink is a medium gray with low shading and no sheen. The texture is similar to chalk and Platinum Carbon ink when dry.

This ink had a wet flow. I’ve noticed that the more pigmented Kala inks tend to be wet. The color is excellent and looks like dark pencil lead.
Overall: Sillimanite is a dark gray with a wet flow and low shading.
