J. Herbin 1670 Fountain Pen Ink – Violet Impérial (Imperial Violet)

Description

The J. Herbin Imperial Violet is a dark purple ink with flecks of gold.

The ink is made and bottled in Paris and comes in a luxurious 50ml glass bottle, with wax caps and seals that are a tribute to Herbin’s origins as a wax maker. The Herbin logo is engraved on the bottom of the bottle.

Founded in 1670, J. Herbin is one of the oldest names in formal ink production in the world. The company’s history can be traced back to a French sailor named Jacques Herbin, who drew on the techniques and innovations found on his voyages to establish himself as a master wax maker, later expanding into the production of ink and fine stationery.
