  Jacques Herbin Bouquet d’Antan   Ink Review # 236   Originally posted on FPN: Mar 28, 2026   --- 🧾  Description   Ink:  Bouquet d'antan Brand:  Jacques Herbin Country:  France Available:  10, 30 ml bottles worldwide. Cartridges and 100 ml bottles in select stores. Pens Used:  Pilot F3A, Lamy (EF/F/M/B/ stub 1.1), Kanwrite with a FPR ultra-flex nib   Bouquet d’antan translates to Bouquet of Yesteryear.   All classic J Herbin inks are now marketed as Jacques Herbin.  This belongs to original La Perle des encres series (now 40 inks).    It’s a lovely, legible pastel pink with gentle shading. The ink behaves wonderfully on copy paper. While lubrication is below average, the writing experience was surprisingly pleasant.   A wonderful surprise.    ---   🧪  Chroma   ---   ✍️  Writing Samples (scan & photo)   Translations from the original French are provided...
