End-beast? A creature of imagination? Please check the photos. Minor staining is visible due to age. ☆ This item belonged to my 78-year-old brother, who practices calligraphy. Includes specialist books, ink, inkstones, etc. Selling on request! Preparing for the end of life? (*^-^) Most items are several decades old. The ink is mostly old ink! Ink, paper, etc., are said to improve with age. (I don't understand it at all?) There are many items related to calligraphy, but please understand my lack of knowledge. I would also be happy if you could take a look when you have time. Thank you for viewing.
