J. Herbin Orange Indien is a decent ink with lovely shading characteristics. However, the color itself runs a bit pale and washed out on the page, lacking the vibrant punch you might expect from an orange ink. It’s a nice shade if you prefer subtler tones, but it might be too light for everyday writing.
Wat een aanbod aan prachtige tinten. Pennen schrijven heerlijk nat en vloeiend. En door steeds correcte snelle levering van Appelboom zit ik nooit zonder ‘Herbin’. Dankuwel.
I really like the Vert Empire ink. It is a somehow pale green with noble touch. The ink is running fine with my fountain pens, is easy to clean afterwards and drys quite fast.
I got the Corail des Tropiques to pair with my Leonardo Momento Zero in Angel Skin fountain pen - and I absolutely love this combination!! I love the color because it is both soft on the eyes as well as bright enough to read, which was the combination I was hoping for.
I bought a number of inks in this line including the Eclat de Saphir, Ambre de Birmani, and Vert Reseda. These are 30ml bottles so I'll be enjoying them as long as they last.
They write well and are beautiful in a range of pens from Lamy Safaris on EF, F, M nibs and Faber-Castell Basic/Essentio on a broad. As with any, the lighter inks will look better the broader the nib. This is the case with the Vert Reseda and Ambre de Birmani.
Basic black ink. Lighter than Pelikan 4001 Brilliant Black but in overall has similar behavior. I like behaviour and properties of Lamy Black more. In my opinion Lamy Black is much better ink. Bottle design and special features are interesting and unique.
