Herbin Ink 1670 - 1798

Inchiostro Herbin "1670 -1798"

Deep unsaturated colors with optimal pressure sensitivity, the 1670 and 1798 inks are made bright by shimmering silver or gold flecks for an extremely elegant finish.

The 1670 collection celebrates the rich life and adventures of Herbin, an enterprising French sailor of the mid-seventeenth century.
While employed at the Compagnie des Indes Orientales, he made numerous trips to India, collecting ingredients and formulas for his sealing wax and inks.

The exclusive ink collection of 1798 celebrates the year in which Jacques Herbin first introduced his line of quality inks, an important step in the history of the brand.
