Product Number: 152 Product Name: "Toukaen" Kobaen Solid Ink This is a rare, solid ink made by Kobaen, manufactured in 1982 (Showa 57). As it is an antique item, there is some age-related deterioration on the wrapping paper and paulownia wood box. Please refer to the photos and understand before purchasing. It is said that solid ink is better to use after it has been aged for many years rather than immediately after manufacture, as it makes the brushwork lighter and allows for richer expression through changes in the bleeding and ink color. This item was carefully collected by my grandparents, who ran a stationery store during their lifetime. I would be very happy if it could reach someone who can make great works of art with it. Ink Weight: 50g Ink Size: Height: Approximately 11.3cm Width: Approximately 2.8cm Thickness: Approximately 1.2cm Price at the time (Showa era): 50,000 yen ⚠ Opened for inspection and photography before listing. ⚠ Starting April 6, 2025, I will be overlaying text on the photos of ink items. This will make the products a little harder to see, but it is a measure to prevent photo reproduction. Thank you for your understanding. I do not list or sell items outside of Mercari.
