Technical specifications
J. Herbin La Perle Des Encres ink is water-based with a vegan composition. It flows smoothly and evenly on common paper and stationery. It is acid-free, so it does not damage nibs over time. The formulation is also compatible with converters and piston-filling systems.
Available in a 10 ml bottle — ideal for those who want to try multiple colors — and a 30 ml bottle for more continuous use. To learn more about fountain pen ink characteristics, consult the ink page on Wikipedia.
FAQ
Is J. Herbin La Perle Des Encres ink compatible with all fountain pens?
Yes. The water-based formulation is compatible with any fountain pen that uses standard cartridges or converters. It does not contain acids or solid pigments that could clog the nib or feed.
What is the difference between the 10 ml and 30 ml bottles?
The 10 ml bottle is ideal for those who want to try a new color or frequently switch between multiple shades. The 30 ml bottle is the more economical choice for those who use one color continuously. The color and formulation are, consequently, identical in both sizes.
How do I choose the right color?
The range covers the entire color wheel: from deep blacks and blues to Mediterranean turquoises, from greens to pinks and violets, all the way to amber and orange-brown. The choice also depends on the type of paper, the pen, and the writing style. Also read our article What color are you today? to guide you.
Is J. Herbin ink waterproof?
No. Like most water-based fountain pen inks, La Perle Des Encres is not waterproof. It is, however, suitable for everyday writing, correspondence, and journaling, but not for documents that require resistance to moisture.
Two formats
Herbin La perle des Encres inks are available here in the classic 30ml bottle, with integrated pen rest, or in the small 10ml bottle, with a metal screw cap.
The iconic “La Perle des Encres” range is produced in 40 delicate shades, in 100 ml, 30 ml, 10 ml bottles and in cartridges.
