Handmade Japanese Solid Ink

Akashiya have been making authentic Japanese calligraphy supplies and brushes for over 300 years, so they know a thing or two about calligraphy.

This solid ink block is handmade in Japan using burnt pine wood soot.  Pressed into this stunning block of ink.  To be used with an ink stone, just gently rub onto the ink stone with a little water to create your own traditional Japanese calligraphy ink.
