Colors:

• Vert de Gris (Veridris): the originality of the color is based on both gray and green tones. From the corrosion of copper, greyish combines with both light and dark colors for a rendering of both soft and deep writing.
• Perle noire (Black Pearl): the black ink was the first created by Herbin, with an exceptional quality. He gave it the name “Perle Noire” for its preciousness.
  
• Bleu myosotis (“Forget-me-not” blue): named after the flower of that very same name. Based on the famous legend, a knight and his lady were taking a walk along the river. He bent over to pick up a flower for his lady but lost his balance with the weight of its armor and fell into the river. While drowning he threw the flower at his lady screaming “Forget-me-not”. Thanks to that legend the myosotis had become the symbol of memory and remembrance. The bleu myosotis is also the closest color to the standard and traditional blue ink used by every French pupil.
  
• Bleu des profondeurs (Deep Sea Blue): this blue is between the midnight blue and black pearl ink colors. Dark and deep, it evokes the deep ocean floor where a secret floral life develops. This blue will give a particular intensity to your writings.
  
• Lie de thé (Brown tea): a subtle brown with soft shades whose name symbolizes tea.
• Rouille d’ancre (Rusty anchor red): this color also refers to the journeys of Herbin, when traveling at sea. This color comes from the rust found on the anchor of the boats when moored in one location for a very long time.
