Jacques Herbin Shogun by Kenzo Takada & K3 – Flacon Ink – 50 ml

This new range of inks “creations d’artistes” of exclusive Jacques Herbin collection honors and celebrates personalities, recognized for their talents, by developing for each of them a new shade, unique and sublime, reflecting the sensitivity and soul of the artist.

Kenzo Takada is recognized worldwide as one of the most famous creators and designers of his generation. His recognizable style combines multicultural inspirations with a distinct Japanese touch. Kenzo Takada had co-founded (K3), a luxury brand dedicated to the art of living, with Jonathan Bouchet Manheim, the brand’s managing director, in 2019 as artistic director. Kenzo Takada sadly passed away on October 4th 2020, just as the partnership with Jacques Herbin, who was dear to him, had started. This ink is thus a homage to this exceptional man.

Creating was Kenzo Takada’s leitmotif, a powerful drive to always bring beauty to the fore. This twilight-coloured ink, reminiscent of a beautiful night of stars, is coated with fine red and gold glitter. The resulting hue is reminiscent of certain armours from the Shogun era, for which Kenzo Takada held a fine appreciation.

This ink can be used with both fountain pens and dip pens.

Ink in the bottles have been adjusted, to the best of our ability, to convey their appearance on paper. Please refer to ink swatches for the best representation of their colour.
