For more than a thousand years, the method of making Sumi sticks has remained the same. Soot from pine or certain vegetable oils mixed with animal or fish glue is molded and dried to form a well-shaped, solid block that, when ground on a Suzuri stone with water, turns to ink.

Specially formulated for use with traditional Sumi-e ink wash painting techniques, these professional, artist-grade watercolors offer a high pigment concentration that works exceptionally well on absorbent rice papers. They are great for calligraphy, rubber stamping, card making, and paper crafts.
