Ink Snippet: J. Herbin Bleu Myosotis

J. Herbin Blue Myosotis

J. Herbin Bleu Myosotis. This ink. It’s strange. On most paper, its color seems to fade after a day or so. The final color ends up a pale periwinkle, after it fades from a darker, fresher blue. It’s a nice enough color, either way, but I can’t work out whether the fading is a bug or a feature. This ink confuses me.

  1. That’s a bit odd. In a way, it reminds me of old Sheaffer “Washable Blue”, which also seemed to fade a bit. Either that or it’s my memory that is fading a bit.
