Jacques Herbin - Turquoise de Perse

Turquoise de Perse – a vivid blue-green ink lit with dazzling gold shimmer, from the Jacques Herbin 1670 Anniversary Collection.

Inspired by the precious Persian turquoise gemstone, Turquoise de Perse is a bright, saturated blue-green that shades well and catches the light with a fine gold sheen. It adds a touch of glamour to letters, journals, cards and calligraphy without overwhelming your writing.

The 1670 Collection celebrates the year Herbin was founded in Paris and the adventures of Jacques Herbin, the French sailor who returned from his travels with formulas for inks and sealing waxes. Each 1670 ink comes in a distinctive glass bottle finished with a hand-dipped wax seal.

Using shimmer inks: shake the bottle well before filling so the gold particles are evenly mixed. Shimmer inks suit pens with medium or broader nibs and generous flow best; avoid leaving them in a pen for long periods and flush your pen regularly with clean water.
