Traditional seal ink for calligraphy and painting

This traditional Chinese sealing ink (印泥) is carefully formulated to ensure a crisp, lasting impression when stamping calligraphic or pictorial works. Thanks to its natural components, it provides excellent adhesion, a smooth texture, and a vibrant red color.

Specifications: Outer diameter of 6-7 cm

Use: Ideal for seals used in calligraphy, traditional Chinese painting and seal engraving (篆刻)

Ingredients :

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

Storage instructions:

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

Ink maintenance:

• Stir regularly with a bone or bamboo tool to maintain homogeneity, taking care not to tear the mugwort fibers.
