Two rare, high-quality antique sumi ink sticks from the early Showa era (pre-WWII). Valuable, 100-year-old aged ink! 5900 yen These are "Daitei Ink" made by the now-defunct famous shop, Gyokusendo. Although unused, please understand that there are scratches and deterioration due to nearly 100 years of aging. I heard these belonged to my grandmother when she was young. They were stored in a workshop. I believe they can still be used without any problems. These are natural oil soot sumi ink sticks without any impurities. They have a presence and weight that everyone would want to try using. For those who are interested, I will sell them. Only the items shown are available. Please purchase them as they are. 10-4
