Description

• 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.
• Herbins second 1798 ink is inspired by carnelian, a semi-precious stone prized by the ancient Egyptians for its vitality, calming powers, and ability to restore courage.
• Deep unsaturated colors with optimal pressure sensitivity, 1798 Inks are illuminated with shimmering flecks of silver for an elegant finish.
• The ocher tint of Carnelian of Egypt, inspired by gemstones, is sublimated thanks to its silver glitter that shines a thousand lights. It brings warmth and elegance to different writings.

• This newest ink in the 1798 collection contains rich, orange/red pigments that have made the carnelian so beloved for thousands of years.
