J. Herbin Ink "Creation of Artists" SHOGUN KENZO TAKADA
Kenzo Takada is recognised worldwide as one of the most famous creators and designers of his generation. His recognisable style combines multicultural inspirations with a distinctive Japanese touch. Kenzo Takada had co-founded a luxury brand dedicated to the art of living, with Jonathan Bouchet Manheim, CEO of the brand, in 2019 as artistic director. Kenzo Takada sadly passed away on 4 October 2020, just as he had begun the partnership with Jacques Herbin, whom he loved. This ink is therefore a tribute to this exceptional man.
J. Herbin Ink "Creation of Artists" SHOGUN KENZO TAKADA
Creating was Kenzo Takada's leitmotif, a powerful impulse to always bring beauty to the fore. This twilight-coloured ink, reminiscent of a beautiful starry night, is coated with a fine red and gold glitter. The resulting shade is reminiscent of certain Shogun-era armour, for which Kenzo Takada had a great appreciation.
This ink is designed for use in fountain pens, never mix this ink with any other ink. Before filling your inkwell or fountain pen, rinse well. Shake the bottle well before filling the writing instrument for best results. If your pen has been inactive for some time, we recommend that you empty and clean it. The quality ink is supplied in elegant 50 ml glass bottles.
About Jacques Herbin
Established in Paris in 1670 - when King Louis XIV was 32 years old - Maison HERBIN initially specialised in the trade of sealing wax, fine stationery and inks, and imported shellac from India. In 1798, the Maison changed direction and put its faith in the future: while continuing to produce wax and participating in the paper and colour (pigments) trade, it launched the production of its own writing ink on the initiative of JACQUES HERBIN, a member of the fourth generation.
Maison Herbin now extends its offer with the exclusive Jacques Herbin Collection, a complete universe of inks, writing instruments, stationery and small leather goods.
