Jacques Herbin — Bistro Parisien Ink Review # 266 Ink: Bistro Parisien Series: Couleurs de Paris (Colors of Paris) Brand: Jacques Herbin Country: France Availability: 10 ml, 30 ml bottles. Pens Used: Osmiroid Copperplate EEF flex, Lamy Safari (EF, F, M, B, 1.1) Description This is one of three new inks added to the Couleurs de Paris collection. It’s a tribute to the Parisian bistros. I got my sample from Fountainfeder in Germany. With a dry pen it’s a lovely, luminous red, with a wet pen it is a lovely red-black with gorgeous shading. It has no water resistance. It made my Osmiroid nib sing; however, with Lamy nibs the lubrication was slightly below-average to excellent, depending on the nib size. This ink has become one of my favorites for artwork and sketching. The range of tones I can extract from it is endless.
