Herbin Fountain Pen Ink / Les Couleurs de Paris

In a fountain pen ink market that’s becoming increasingly difficult to navigate due to the sheer number of new brands, sometimes it’s best to go back to a classic, low-maintenance writing ink from a company that’s been around for hundreds of years. Known as “The Jewel of Inks”, Herbin bills its inks as the oldest in the world currently being sold, made in Paris as they were in 1798. They are non-toxic, lightfast, fast-drying, waterbased and contain all-natural dyes.

These specific colors are inspired by the city where the inks originated: Paris, France. 30ml bottles. Made in France.
