Jacques Herbin 1798 ink – Cornelian of Egypt

This is the perfect ink for my transparent orange TWSBI with the bold / broad nib. It looks like a lava lamp with the simmers that the ink has. That being said, I have not had any feed or nib clogging from this, despite the golden shimmers. The ink is on the wet side (somewhere between the 1670 range and Diamine’s super sheeners). It has a wonderfully burnt orange colour with a golden shimmer. On Tomoe River paper and if you lay it down heavily on Rhodia it even rewards you with a sheen!
