I bought this Jacques Herbin Ink in 2023 and didn't like it very much... (and they were not cheap). So it landed in my drawer till now. I decided to make w/c backgrounds with it to at least finally try to use it up. (Kyanite du Nepal, Cornaline d'Egypte, Emeraude de Chivor.) Interesting names - basically a blue, orange and emerald. The emerald DOES NOT look like a green, more a turquoise/aqua color. The orange mixed with the blue or the Emerald seems to make a nice olivey color so maybe I'll mix some in a smaller container...
Sorry the bottom color should be more greenish blue...
