Jacques Herbin Gris Nuage Ink Cartridges, 6-Pack

GRIS NUAGE. A GREY LIKE A CLOUDED SKY.

Not every ink has to raise its voice.

Gris Nuage by Jacques Herbin is a calm, clear
grey.

Nuage is the French word for cloud, and that is
exactly where the name leads: to an overcast sky
just before it clears.

On paper the shade is softer than black and less
severe than a deep charcoal.

It is a writing colour for anyone who prefers a
quiet tone.

THE COLOUR OF FIRST DRAFTS.

Grey is the colour of the first thought.

Sketches, margin notes and corrections all find
their own voice in it without taking over the
page.

If you like to work with more than one colour,
Gris Nuage is the perfect second voice next to a
strong blue or red.

Broad strokes reveal the full depth of the ink,
while fine lines appear lighter and more airy.

As with every ink, the final impression depends on
the paper, the nib and the amount of ink applied.

WRITE QUIETLY, STAY CLEAR.

A beautiful pen changes the way we write.

An unusual ink colour takes that one step further.

Gris Nuage suits notebooks, journals, drafts and
everything that is written for yourself first.

For drawings and hatching, a good grey is an
obvious choice.

On grey or cream paper the result is particularly
harmonious.

It is a colour for anyone who would rather suggest
than emphasise.

SIX CARTRIDGES IN THE ROUND ALUMINIUM TIN.

The cartridges arrive in the round aluminium tin
that belongs to the classic Herbin collection.

The silver finish suits a grey that makes no noise
of its own.

Six international standard short cartridges sit
side by side inside.

The tin is flat enough for a pencil case, a desk
drawer or a travel bag.

Refills stay wherever the pen goes.

Once the ink is used up, the tin will hold paper
clips, an eraser or other small things.

Packaging that nobody throws away.

A FRENCH NAME SINCE 1670.

The house of Jacques Herbin goes back to Paris in
the year 1670.

Three and a half centuries later the name stands
for French writing culture and an unusually wide
range of ink colours.

Gris Nuage belongs to its classic writing ink
collection.

The water-based, vegan ink is made in France.

These cartridges are suitable for fountain pens
and cartridge rollerball pens that accept
international standard short cartridges.

Not all writing instruments use this cartridge
format.

A DIFFERENT COLOUR, A DIFFERENT TONE.

A new writing impression does not call for a new
pen.

One cartridge in a different colour is often
enough.

Gris Nuage offers a particularly restrained
combination: a soft grey, a hint of cloudy sky and
French stationery heritage.

It is a quiet choice for anyone who enjoys
beautiful writing instruments and treats colour as
part of their own style.

In its aluminium tin it also makes a small gift
for someone who writes by hand.
