J.Herbin日前在倫敦筆展發布消息:1670紀念特別墨水系列今年即將推出新色!
新品名稱:Caroube de Chypre(直譯:賽普勒斯的角豆)
官方公布的文案:
"It is said that J. Herbin was very fond of dried carob pods and that is the
reason he lived so long!
As the other merchants sailing the Mediterranean sea, he would pick them up
in Cyprus, on his way back home.
The carob bean is the fruit of the carob tree and was cultivated in the
Mediterranean countries since ancient times..
Carob pods are known for their great therapeutic properties and were marketed
throughout Europe as the “black gold of Cyprus”.
This new Anniversary ink is called “Caroube de Chypre” because of its
intense and deep brown with a hint of red, and of course its gold specks".
不負責任中譯:
據說Herbin先生非常喜歡乾燥的角豆莢,這也是他的長壽秘方!
如同其他巡航地中海的商人,他總是在返家途中在賽普勒斯採購它們。
角豆是carob樹的果實,地中海國家種植此作物的歷史已非常悠久。
角豆莢以其治療功效聞名,行銷全歐洲,並有「賽普勒斯的黑金」之美譽。
這款最新的週年紀念墨水命名為「賽普勒斯的角豆」,因為它是濃烈的深棕色,
又帶有些許紅色調,當然金粉也是少不了的。
官方預計發售日期為今年法國國慶日(7/14)。
其他補充:
1. 角豆莢長這樣:http://tinyurl.com/zj4kjcy
是地中海地區(尤其賽普勒斯)的特有經濟作物,有控制血壓血糖、預防骨質疏鬆及
便秘等功效。由於它味道和顏色都近似可可粉,又不含咖啡因和可可鹼,所以是很
受歡迎的可可代替品(狗狗也可以吃歐~)

2. J.Herbin常態系列(珍珠彩墨)已經有一款以角豆命名:
角豆紅 (Rouge Caroubier) JH322

不過這款是亮紅色,應該是呼應角豆的花(但形狀完全不像囧)
1670即將推出的新墨則是對應豆莢的顏色
以上
應該很多人早就知道了,但文具板好像還沒有相關訊息,就加減貼一下給大家參考囉~
