J. Herbin 1670 Emeraude de Chivor Bottled Ink (15 ml)

The Inks 1670, from the exclusive Jacques Herbin Prestige Collection, commemorate the year Jacques Herbin was founded in the heart of Paris. These deep, intense colours are illuminated with golden glitter.

J. Herbin is said to have kept an emerald in his pocket during his voyages as a good luck charm. These precious gemstones have been treasured for centuries as protective talismans. One of the purest emerald deposits in the world, the Chivor mine was discovered in the middle of the16th century by Spanish conquistadors.

This beautiful emerald green blue ink contains gold flecks throughout, enhancing your writing with an elegance and beauty that is unmatched by other inks.

Chivor emeralds were much in demand, and the emperors and royalty of India, Turkey and Persia sought the New World treasures once the gems arrived in Europe. Emeralds were enormously popular with the Mughal Court, whose emperors referred to them as “Tears of the Moon” because of their opaque transparency.

1670 inks are suitable for fountain pens, roller pens, glass nibs and fountain holders.

The waxing of the stopper and the seal on the bottle are handmade in the Jacques Herbin workshop.

Made in France.
