Due to the rarity of the tinctures, this color, a symbol of luxury but also of mystery, was used in the Roman Empire by the emperor and his family, as well as later by various royal houses. King Louis XIV, under whose reign the Jacques Herbin house was founded, also used it at certain times in his life for his clothing. This fresh and elegant color is now highly valued, especially in decoration and design. The ink is suitable for fountain pens, rollerball pens, glass pens, and dip pens. The sealing of the cap and the seal on the bottle are handcrafted in our workshops.
