Celebrating 350 years of Herbin
Manufactured in the heart of Paris since 1670, Herbin® has been a name recognised for its exceptional quality of inks and waxes which are exported all over the world.
Originally a manufacturer of sealing wax, The Herbin® brand was established by a Mr. Jacques Herbin in Paris. It is from his travels in India that the founder imported his formula of shellac which allowed him to advance the quality of his seals, in adherence and finesse, and to acquire a professional reputation internationally. In 1798, the company went on to create a line of writing inks.
To celebrate 350 successful years, we have launched a range of limited edition inks and gift sets. These incorporate a collection of vintage wax capped ink bottles, available in the first five colours launched by Herbin®: black (Perle Noire), blue (Bleu Myosotis), red (Rouge Caroubier), green (Vert Réséda) and violet (Violette Pensée).

Did you know: 2020 also marks the first centenary of the G. Lalo® brand, which was also founded by Mr Georges Lalo. Georges had worked within a printing and stamping workshop before fulfilling his dream of starting his own company to supply luxury letters and envelopes. Thanks to its craftsmanship and superior quality, it remains as the French reference in social stationery.
To celebrate this anniversary, a collaboration between G. Lalo® and Season Paper™; a French and Parisian brand, has resulted in a new collection of notepads, notebooks and compendium sets which feature three attractive, Art Deco inspired patterns.
