Herbin

About

For over three centuries, Herbin has embodied the artistry and elegance of fine French craftsmanship. Established in 1670 by Jacques Herbin, a sailor who returned from India with formulas for rich inks and sealing wax, the brand has created inks cherished by writers, including a custom black ink for the legendary Victor Hugo. Today, Herbin’s premium fountain pen and calligraphy inks, writing instruments, and beautiful gift sets continue this legacy, each made in France and hand-finished in Paris.
