The art of calligraphy is widely practiced and revered in the Asian civilizations. In addition to being an artform in its own right, calligraphy has also influenced ink and wash painting, which is accomplished using similar tools and techniques. The Asian tradition of calligraphy originated in China, specifically the ink and brush writing of Chinese characters. Calligraphy has also led to the development of many other forms of art in Asia, including seal carving, ornate paperweights, and inkstones. This well crafted Sumi calligrapher's set comes complete with five brushes measuring 9" long, a brush rest, sumi ink stick and stone, soapstone seal and red sealing ink. These also make great gifts!
