Set in a beautiful 50ml glass ink bottle, Jacques Herbin Bleu de Minuit is the darkest color available in the collection apart from Noir Abyssal ink. It is a deep, dark celestial blue, evoking a starry night.

Established in Paris in 1670, the Maison HERBIN initially specialized in the sealing wax, fine stationery and ink trade, and imported shellac from India. Since this founding their aim has been to "Give body and color to our thoughts." The adventure of one of the oldest ink makers in the world began over three hundred years ago but its products have expanded into a complete universe of inks, writing instruments, stationery, and other goods for amateurs and connoisseurs of the lettering arts.

Great flow., a little wet for my taste...

... bot that's subjective, personal. This is a GORGEOUS color. "Sophisticated."

A tad brighter than expected, but I'm not mad

The swatches are pretty accurate. I had read that some people found this ink dark, so I thought it might be more blue-black than it looked, and I am a blue-black fan. But Bleu de Minuit is a fairly true blue -- not too dark, not too light. I can hardly be mad that it's exactly the shade shown in the images! 😁 And if I'm being honest, I do really like this color now that I've been using it a bit.

Great ink for Right Handers not Lefties

I love the color and herbin inks. But this ink seems to dry slower than the black ink hebin has. I tend to smudge it even when I'm being careful as I'm a lefty.

Any of these fountain pens will work with bottled ink. Typically, as long as the pen can be filled with a converter, has a built-in filling mechanism like a piston, or can be eyedropper-filled, it can accept bottled ink. You can also refill an empty ink cartridge from bottled ink using an ink syringe.
