JACQUES HERBIN 1670 Anniversary Ink 15ml Fuchsia De Magellan

Fuchsia de Magellan ink from the "1670" collection by Jacques Herbin is a bright and luminous shade. This intense fuchsia is illuminated with golden glitter that gives it a unique depth and character. Presented in a 15ml glass bottle, this ink is ideal for fountain pens, rollerball pens, and glass pens.

At the heart of this narrative lies Jacques Herbin, a distinguished ink maker who left an indelible mark on the annals of history. During his ventures and voyages, Jacques Herbin developed a penchant for dried carob pods – a wholesome and nutritious source of sustenance. Much like other discerning merchants of his time, he embarked on journeys to acquire these precious pods, often seeking or trading for them on the island of Cyprus.

Carob trees have been cultivated in Mediterranean lands since antiquity, their pods revered not only for their flavor but also for their therapeutic properties. These remarkable pods were regarded as the "black gold of Cyprus" and found their way into the hearts and palates of Europe.

It's within this rich tapestry of history that we encounter the newest addition to the anniversary ink collection - "Caroube de Chypre" or Cyprus Carob. This ink, with its deep brown color, pays homage to the legacy of carob and its significance. "Caroube de Chypre" delights the senses with its dark brown hue, enlivened by subtle red reflections and a sparkling gold effect.

This ink is enriched with Campeche wood tannin, ensuring exceptional preservation over time. As it flows onto the page, it gradually deepens in hue, like the passages of history itself. Each bottle contains 50ml of this magnificent ink, housed in an elegant glass vessel that mirrors the timeless sophistication of its contents.
