Great all around |

All three of my pens are filled with J. Herbin ink at the moment. I love the color selections available, the smooth lines it creates, and how saturated it appears even on the page. The website says that the cartridges don't fit on Lamy pens, but all you need to do is snip off the tip of the cartridge to the body itself, and it'll pop right on, no problems!

I used this ink in my Retro 51 Scriptmaster Series II with a fine nib and enjoyed using it very much. It had great flow, started every time, never a skip. It felt smooth and not watery. It didn't feel as smooth as Noodler's The Heart of Darkness Black, though. Dry time on my Clairefontaine pad was between 7-9 seconds.

As a self-professed Noodler's fanatic I was surprised how much I liked the three J. Herbin inks I've tried (Vert Olive, Violet Pensee, and Terre de Feu). I think that the two companies give you the best of whatever you want, and with J. Herbin it is flow, shading, and consistency. Yes, they are less saturated than, for example, Noodler's, but when that is what you want this is a fantastic line of ink. I especially love the Vert Olive.

Quick J. Herbin Fountain Pen Ink review ... |

These are some of my absolute fav. fountain pen inks. Water based and free-flowing.
The only knock against them is that the colors may be too light or 'washed out' for some tastes. But I often want an option when I get tired of using the more saturated ink brands available.
The brand has been around since 1670 and makes fantastic inks that work in any pen I've tried them in. They don't stain pens and rinse well. If you're worried about a vintage pen or simply want an ink that is classic and will always work, this is it.

Ink with class |

I consider Herbin to be the inks with class. Yes,they are French. That adds a bit of flavour to the label and the bottles are attractive. The inks themselves are more standard than exceptional. I admire the Vert Olive and Lie de The. They even have fragrant inks! Harder to locate but worth it.
