Jacques Herbin 1670 Caroube de Chypre - Ink Sample

Way warmer in person

I bought this on a lark -- or maybe due to Goulet's Fall Marketing -- and I regret nothing. I found that the ink has a few hard starts in my Pilot Explorer, but that has been my experience with virtually all shimmery inks in virtually all of my pens. The color is beautiful. I normally think of brown as being boring -- but when the light hits the shimmer, its just out of this world. It even photographs well (note, photo isn't included because my test words are usually of the four letter variety, and other folks do a better job of the hash marks). all in all, a great value in. And a bottle is in my cart as I type this.

I like it but ...

I like this ink but i would prefer other shimmering inks

Stunning

Beautiful colour. Adds a shimmer to writing. Can have a slow flow, at times. A must to any ink enthusiast.
