Perfect gift for artists
Bought this for my father who loves calligraphy. He was impressed by the craftsmanship and the elegant Ru Kiln style. It looks beautiful on his desk even when not in use.

Good value
Solid inkstone for the price. The double ring prevents spills effectively. My only minor critique is that the lid could be slightly heavier to stay in place better if bumped.

Beautiful Celadon Finish
The color is exactly as pictured, a soothing celadon green. The glaze is smooth and the double-ring design keeps my ink from drying out too quickly during long practice sessions.

Great for beginners
I am new to calligraphy and this inkstone is very forgiving. The lid fits snugly, which helps preserve the ink overnight. The grinding surface feels just right, not too rough.

Lovely aesthetic and function
This inkstone combines beauty and utility perfectly. The celadon hue is calming, and the anti-drying feature allows me to focus on my strokes rather than constantly remixing ink.

Excellent moisture retention
The 'hot pot' design really works. I can leave my ink mixed for an hour without it becoming sludge. The ceramic quality feels premium and substantial in hand.
Q: What is the capacity of the ink pool?
A: The double-ring pool holds approximately 30-40ml of liquid ink, which is sufficient for several hours of continuous writing or painting.
Q: Does this inkstone come with a brush rest?
A: No, this specific model includes only the inkstone and its matching lid. Brush rests are sold separately.
Q: How do I clean the ink residue after use?
A: Simply rinse gently with clean water and wipe with a soft cloth. Avoid using soap or detergents as they can affect the ink grinding texture and flavor.
Q: Can I use liquid ink directly in this, or must I grind an ink stick?
A: You can use both! The textured bottom area is designed for grinding ink sticks, while the smooth pool areas are perfect for holding pre-made liquid ink.
Q: Is the ceramic microwave safe?
A: While the ceramic is durable, we do not recommend microwaving the inkstone as thermal shock could damage the glaze or the structure. It is designed for room temperature use.
