Description
Violette pensée (Pensive violet): this color is also a flower from the very same name. Since Napoleon I, French pupils used violet ink color, the least expensive color. This ink was made of methyl-violet, also used to disinfect wounds. J. Herbin's formulation captures this historical hue with remarkable authenticity, offering a medium saturation that displays excellent shading properties on quality paper. The ink flows smoothly from fountain pens without clogging and dries relatively quickly. Available in both 10ml and 30ml bottles, this violet ink provides a distinctive alternative to standard blue or black, perfect for correspondence that demands subtle sophistication with historical significance.
