Includes a copy of the bookmark for Miyagi Prefecture's Ogatsu Inkstone. [7] Condition: Near-new, beautiful shape and condition [8] Shape: Finely Carved Rectangular Large Inkstone ◉ This work is based on a standard rectangular inkstone with an 8mm rim, with grapes carved on the upper edge of the inkstone and a vase carved from the center to the bottom. The remaining carvings on the edge are carefully and meticulously stamped, taking considerable time to finish. The vase-shaped ink well is beautifully and deeply carved, allowing for a large capacity of ink. With its size and thickness, it has a very well-balanced and elegant appearance, making it a wonderful piece. The stone pattern flows from the sea to the hills in a meandering manner, and when light is applied, it shines like silver sand. When you place your fingertip on the inner corner of the edge, it is perfectly smooth and carefully finished. The high skill of the inkstone craftsman is evident. It can be used or displayed as an object, so we hope you will add it to your collection. Please understand the rarity and excellence of this inkstone, which is rarely seen as a Japanese inkstone. ◉ This work is rarely seen, but we will consider price negotiations, so please comment. ◉ Reference Shiun Suzuri, Ogatsu Suzuri, Toryusai, Moriyuki Endo, Amehata Suzuri, Mine Suzuri, Hoshi, Amenohata Suzuri, Seiken Amemiya, Yahei, Yataro, Ryukei Suzuri, Ryukei Nabekura, Shuseki, Takada Suzuri, Wakada Suzuri, Morokashi Ishi Suzuri, Horaiji Suzuri, Hozan, Takashima Torafuzuri, Kokuji Suzuri, Tosa Suzuri, Nakamura Suzuri, Nachiguro Suzuri, Gyokuishi, Komine, Akama Suzuri, Takuji, Shinobu, Teisai, Yoichi, Gyokuchiken, Gyokumine, Shoryuzan, Yuiseki, Kokei Suzuri, Baiyo, Yodo, Yakushima Suzuri ◉ Please refrain from purchasing if you are seeking perfection or are overly sensitive. ※ Please check the images carefully. ※ Please be sure to read my profile. ※ ⭕️ Please see the works I have posted so far.
