J. Herbin 1670 Anniversary Bottled Ink in Gris Orage - 15 mL
Celebrate the adventurous spirit of fine writing with J. Herbin 1670 Gris Orage, a deep, stormy grey ink illuminated with shimmering gold flecks. In the early 1700s, M. Herbin created the “Jewel of Inks” in his Paris shop on the Rue des Fosses Saint-Germain, establishing the Herbin name as the oldest in fine pen inks.
Part of the 1670 Anniversary Ink Collection, Gris Orage reflects the daring voyages of Jacques Herbin, a 17th-century French sailor who traveled to distant lands and brought back formulas for inks and sealing wax to Paris. Inspired by the dark, tempestuous seas he encountered, this ink combines a rich coal grey (anthracite) with fine golden shimmer, evoking both flashes of lightning across the water and the mysterious depths of stormy oceans.
Crafted with all-natural dyes and a pH-neutral formula, Gris Orage delivers a smooth and expressive writing experience for fountain pens. Presented in a 15?mL glass bottle sealed with hand-dipped wax, it captures the elegance, heritage, and Parisian craftsmanship that have defined Herbin inks for centuries.
Bring the drama and beauty of the high seas to your writing with J. Herbin 1670 Gris Orage.
