Product information
招福墨 (Shoufukuboku) — 招 (Shou, to call) 福 (Fuku, good fortune) 墨 (Boku, ink) — is Kobaien's commemorative inkstick honouring the Tiger of the Chinese zodiac, carved with the animal said to preside over those born in 1938, 1950, 1962, 1974, 1986, 1998, and 2010.
In East Asia, the twelve zodiac animals are believed to shape not just birth years but character, and the Tiger carries a reputation all its own: confident, brave, magnetic, and idealistic, tempered by a thrill-seeking, sometimes arrogant streak.
Objects bearing the zodiac animal have long been exchanged as tokens of luck, and this inkstick continues that custom in solid, workable form — as much a small charm as it is ink waiting to be ground.
Give it to someone born under the Tiger, or simply to mark a Tiger year of your own.
