Ingredients:

• Premium cinnabar powder (朱砂)
• Mugwort fiber (艾绒)
• Castor oil (蓖麻油)

Storage recommendations:

• Recommended container: Store in a vitrified porcelain jar. Avoid clay containers (such as Yixing or porous ceramic) or metal (steel, copper, iron), which can absorb oil or cause premature drying.

Ink maintenance:
