Porcelain Calligraphy Water Dropper (Eggplant)

C$300.00
Suiteki (水滴) is a container used in East Asian calligraphy to hold a small amount of water. To create ink, a few drops are deposited from the suiteki onto the surface of an inkstone, on which an inkstick is then ground. We love the whimsical form.
