Japanese Darkness and Light Sumi-e Watercolour Set
Proudly presenting our latest, in a series of Japanese watercolour sets - please meet Darkness and Light - 20 shades of black, created by combining pigment and ancient Japanese ink. Sumi ink, a rough translation of the Japanese word for stain, can be linked to the arrival of Buddhism in Japan, imported from Korea and in turn China sometime during the Nara period in the 7th century AD. Not surprisingly the best ink makers are still based in the ancient Imperial city, where our ingredients originate.
