Jacques Herbin Bleu de Minuit – Ink Sample

2ml sample of Jacques Herbin Bleu de Minuit fountain pen ink, in a labeled plastic vial.

Established in Paris in 1670, the Maison HERBIN initially specialized in the sealing wax, fine stationery and ink trade, and imported shellac from India. Since this founding their aim has been to “Give body and color to our thoughts.” The adventure of one of the oldest ink makers in the world began over three hundred years ago but its products have expanded into a complete universe of inks, writing instruments, stationery, and other goods for amateurs and connoisseurs of the lettering arts.
