I’m not sure of the brand of the jumbo pen, but from my limited research… I’m pretty sure it’s from Japan.

The tiny pen is a celluloid Peter Pan eyedropper, the smallest they made (and with an amazing, legitimate wet noodle nib to boot).

I’ve emailed J. Herbin and expressed my disappointment at their removing of the golden particulates that made the original formula of the inks so unique and beautiful. I know there have always been detractors to the look, but there are more people who love it than hate it.

If you love the original formula and want your sheen back, email J. Herbin and let them know!

It’s interesting when a brownish ink has a silver sheen.
