watery brown ink

Evidence

"The script is a rather cramped and slightly chaotic naskh, copied in watery brown ink."

Remarks

Used for the main body of the 1318 Mas̲navī. The scribe is suggested to be Tāj al-Dīn ibn Naqīb (p. 149, 155). The letter forms include deep bowls, small serifless alifs, and large kāfs, which are inconsistent across the manuscript (p. 149-150).
