Les recettes du copiste – atelier encre médiévale

Family workshop with a mediator from the Compagnons de l?abbaye de Bon-Repos association

Grind walnuts into powder, soak, filter, add iron, then write! After making the iron ink used by copyist monks in the Middle Ages, learn how to use a calamus (reed cut into a point). Then make a bookmark to take home as a souvenir!
