In the year 1798, the French Revolution was ending, ushering in a new era of modern ideas and discovery. At the same time, the steel nib dip pen began to replace quill pens as the primary writing instrument. Herbin, the commercial establishment founded by Jacques Herbin in 1670, relocated to expand the production and influence of their sealing wax and inks.
The exclusive 1798 ink collection celebrates the year Jacques Herbin first introduced his own line of quality inks, an important step in the history of the brand founded three centuries ago and whose story continues today. With deep unsaturated colours and optimal pressure sensitivity as standard, 1798 inks are illuminated with shimmering flecks of silver for an elegant finish.
With its deep and mysterious tones, Diamant Bleu ink shimmers with subtle silver reflections. It evokes the beauty and elegance of the rare blue diamond—a precious stone from India. The ink’s rich hue conjures the quiet allure of summer nights.
