No price reduction. The box shows some stains. ☆ This item belonged to my older brother, who has been practicing calligraphy for fifty years. Selling on his behalf! Preparing for the end of life? (*^-^) Most items have been stored for several decades since purchase. It seems that the ink, paper, etc. improve with age (I don't understand it at all?). There are many items related to calligraphy. Please understand that I lack knowledge. I would also be happy if you could take a look when you have some free time. Thank you for viewing.
