Product information

This letter writing set carries something you won't find on ordinary stationery: an illustration of Kobaien's own ink-making process, printed onto the paper itself, showing how the workshop's soot and glue came together in the old days.

The set is made from washi with good ink extension, meaning it takes a brush and sumi as readily as a pen — a natural fit if you already grind Kobaien ink for painting or calligraphy and want a way to bring that same ink into something more personal than practice sheets.

Each set includes writing paper measuring 258mm x 190mm and a matching envelope at 220mm x 100mm, sized for a proper handwritten letter rather than a quick note.

One customer, on receiving it, called it high quality, adding that it arrived in good time and that she was looking forward to writing letters on it.

For sumi-e and calligraphy enthusiasts who want to bring their brushwork into everyday correspondence, this is a small, affordable way to send something that carries both Kobaien's ink and a bit of its history along with it.

Envelope size: 220mm x 100mm

Writing paper size: 258mm x 190mm
