Used old ink stick, with writing on it. This is from my brother, who has been practicing calligraphy for over 50 years. Most of these items were purchased and stored decades ago. It is said that inkstones, paper, and ink improve with age, but it's all Greek to me? There are too many items, and it takes time to research them. I will be listing them little by little, so I would be happy if you could take a look again when you have some free time. Thank you for looking.
