Old, high-quality Showa era pure pine soot ink stick, 16g For advanced calligraphy and painting, in good condition. My grandmother owned this for high-quality artwork. I believe it's pine soot ink made by Eijudo around the 1940s. She didn't have many and kept them carefully. Unused and in good condition. A gem I recommend to advanced users who appreciate authentic, high-quality items. This isn't a recent ink, so please consider its current condition. 8/1-1
