Best bang for your buck black paint and ink you could ask for.
Richly dark yet watery enough to be easily grey if need be. It’s perfect for testing new brushes and paper! The size is big, you really don’t need as much as you’d think because of how high quality the ink is. Perfect for bordering and calligraphy, and possibly dip pens but I have yet to try them.

Easy to Use
This Daiso Sumi Calligraphy Liquid Ink is a reliable choice for calligraphy enthusiasts. The ink flows smoothly and the color is rich and vibrant, making it perfect for both beginners and experienced artists. It washes off easily, which is a huge plus when working with delicate materials or cleaning up after use. The ink is also easy to use, with a consistency that makes it ideal for brush or dip pen calligraphy. For the price, it offers great quality and performance. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a dependable ink for their calligraphy projects!

Perfect ink for beginner
I really liked this ink. I’m just learning calligraphy and I was able to use this ink just fine. A lot of people recommended the brand “Yasutamo” for beginners and this brand is exactly like theirs. I showed them next to each other, and you really can’t tell the difference. Mine arrived with a really nice consistency already. I didn’t need to add water to it or thicken it up or anything. I would definitely get this again and recommend it to others.

Great ink
I love the way this ink writes. It's smooth, doesn't bleed and has great color. The only down side is I have to dip my pen more often. But the amount of ink I received will go a lot farther than the smaller bottles of calligraphy ink specifically for pens. So I'm saving money.

Great product-a little goes a long way
I bought this for an art project for my kids. I expected the bottle be a bit bigger, but I found it was plenty. The ink is dark and rich. It dried with a sheen, but solid. I found that for our purposes, I could even dilute it with some water and it still was very bold and opaque. A little really went a long way for us. I worried we would run out, but we used a tiny fraction. WELL worth the cost.

Great for Chinese calligraphy
I have been using this for a while now. Very nice quality. I use it for Chinese calligraphy, and it works perfectly fine. I also tried adding some water and dilute it. Great for Chinese ink painting.

Great Value for Money
This ink is very good quality and it doesn't bleed on average paper. The smell is minimal for this Sumi ink. This ink is, definitely, value for money.

Great ink, great price, great quality
Got some of this ink in Japan at twice the price! So getting it from Amazon UK at a better price, winning! Great ink for regular users, quite thick but great quality and colour. Not for beginners though, so if you know what you’re doing, you’ll be golden.

Unglaublich gute "Tinte"
Sie war für meine Frau. Sie ist begeistert, die Handhabung und Einfachheit. Deckel ab, dosieren, mit etwas Wasser auffüllen. Perfekt zum Kalligraphieren.. Hält Extrem Gut, wir haben pflanzen Schildchen beschriftet.. die Tinte überlebt nach 3 Monaten das Papier und sieht aus wie am ersten Tag.. Wirklich gutes Produkt

Goede inkt.
Aanbevolen door een Japanse online Sumi E lerares. Erg handig als je veel wilt oefenen en 'in de flow' zit. Dan is het fijn als je de flow niet hoeft te onderbreken om inkt bij te maken.
