Design and benefit Round shape with a fitted lid: provides a clean, attractive appearance while protecting the ink surface from dust and evaporation. The lid keeps ink ready for immediate use between sessions and reduces the need for frequent reconditioning. Material and durability Natural stone construction: a solid, damageresistant material that stands up to regular use. The stone's density helps maintain stable moisture and temperature for stored ink. Function and performance Preserves ink and supports preparation: the lid helps retain moisture so ink stays usable without forming a skin, and the polished stone surface supports consistent ink quality and handling. Reliable everyday performance: resistance to chips and scratches plus careful polishing ensure longterm usability and consistent feel. Craftsmanship and finish Expert polishing and clear textures: each piece is finished to highlight the stone's natural grain and to provide a refined surface. The detailed workmanship produces distinct, attractive texture without compromising function. Practical applications Calligraphy practice: keep prepared ink covered between strokes or short breaks so you can resume writing without repreparing ink. Studio use for painting and illustration: store usable ink during a session to maintain consistent color and viscosity. Organized storage between sessions: use the lid to protect ink while keeping your workspace neat and ready.
