Product information

Seien Koukaboku is made from rapeseed oil and is the finest quality oil smoke ink with the finest particles. It  is the highest quality model of the six Koukaboku ink sticks.

The ink spreads well, and the darker the ink, the more lustrous and pure black it becomes, and the lighter the ink, the more brownish black it becomes.

 

聖 ( sei : holy ) 

煙 ( en : smoke )

紅 ( kou : crimson )

花 ( ka: flower )

墨 ( boku : ink )

 

In 1739, Matsui,Motoyasu, the sixth successor of Kobaien, went to Nagasaki Prefecture in Japan.

There he interacted with  ink craftsmen of the Qing dynasty and collaborated with them on the production of ink. Koukaboku is one of the best inks born from that study.

Koukaboku is also known as “Ohanzumi ( The ink of flower ) “. Seien, five-star and four-star Koukaboku inks are made from rapeseed oil. Three-star, two-star, and one-star Koukaboku inks are made from Kouba-en’s original mineral oil.

    I am so thankful to be able to use such an incredible ink stick. It is an honor and a joy. In addition to the quality of the product, the customer service from ICHI inc. Japan has been amazing. Kind communication, prompt service and delivery, and care and thoughtfulness at every step of the process. I couldn't be happier!

    How does KOBAIEN ( 古梅園 ) make sumi inksticks in Japan?

    How do you grind inksticks?

    Ms. Junko Azukawa, a contemporary calligrapher and ink painter in Australia, explains how to use stickinks.
