The main ingredient is superb rapeseed (canola) oil.

When painting dark black, the color is glossy. When painting pale black, it is brownish black.

Kinmaki means applying gold leaf. This is the most suitable ink for painting.

Real gold leaf is applied to enhance the preservation of the ink. It also makes the ink apply more smoothly.
