Description

Gansai are the traditional solid watercolours of Japanese painting: rich, slightly opaque pans that you wet with a brush, loved for sumi-e, etegami (illustrated postcards), botanical painting and calligraphy art. Also here: Bokuundo Ebokuboku colour ink pans and Kuretake Saiboku Shinbi colour ink sticks, made like traditional sumi ink. Solid colours only – nothing liquid, so they travel safely.
