Kobaien Gold leaf inksticks

Kobaien Gold leaf inksticks

Gold doesn't tarnish, rust, or react — why fine sumi inksticks have long been finished with gold leaf, a mark reserved for top grades.

Some artisans hold that the gold particles smooth the ink's flow, giving brushwork an easier glide. Preservation, prestige, and a better stroke, all in one thin layer.

The following list is arranged in order of product popularity.
