With a range of five luminous shades, Jacques Herbin is pleased to announce the launch of the new 1670 ink, Violet Impérial, with bluish reflections and a thousand sparkling shimmers, for the pleasure of your writing. Because of the scarcity of dyes, this color, a symbol of luxury but also of mystery, was used by the Emperor and his family under the Roman Empire and then by the various royalties. King Louis XIV, under whom Jacques Herbin was founded, used it for his clothes during certain periods of his life. This fresh and elegant color is currently very popular, particularly in decoration and design. -From Lemur Ink's Product Description of Violet Impérial
