The box is an Echizen lacquer which is one of the famous traditional Japanese crafts.

The set includes:

1 x Koumeien 3-Star Benihana Sumi Ink 0.5

The dark ink makes it bright pure black, and light ink makes it brownish black.

1 x 水滴 Suiteki (small jug)

This is a convenient tool when you rub the inkstick on the inkstone with a few drops of water.

Tilt the Suiteki while holding the hole in the middle, and loosen the holding finger, and water will come out one drop by one drop.

Echizen lacquer has an elegant and glossy surface by applying lacquer repeatedly, and it is light and durable.

The pattern is dragonflies which are a symbol of a good harvest because they drive away pests, and are used as a lucky charm in Japan.
