Herbin 1670 Shimmer Ink, Rouge Hematite

The 1670 Anniversary Collection celebrates the life of the 17th-century French adventurer, Jacques Herbin. Sailing from India, Monsieur Herbin arrived home to Paris with formulas for the now-famous Herbin inks and sealing waxes. Enhanced with a luxurious, golden metallic sheen, these highly saturated inks will add an elegant luster to all your writing. 

With a dark red color and earthy tone, Rouge Hematite ink is a reminder of the historic color of the Herbin logo and the sealing wax used by members of the royal courts.

The sealing wax on the bottle is reminiscent of the Herbin wax used for the "grand cru" wines of France.

The design on the box represents the life of Herbin. The ship, anchor and palm tree represent navigation and discovery. The crown is a reference to the red sealing wax used by the royal court.
