Japanese Calligraphy Ogatsu Inkstones Ichimonjisuzuri 45 flat
- Contents -
The origins of the Ogatsu Suzuri can be traced back to the Muromachi period (1392-1573). Then, at the beginning of the 17th century, two inkstones were presented to the military commander, Date Masamune, who was on a deer hunt on Toojima, an island off the Ojika Peninsular.
It seems that he was highly delighted with the stones and reciprocated generously.
Date's son, Tadamune, also recognized the skill with which these inkstones were fashioned and engaged craftsmen to make inkstones for the clan.
It then seems that he placed the mine from which the stone was sourced under a monopoly and did not allow outsiders to mine there.
The most important part of an inkstone is the houbou, or bed on which an ink stick is rubbed in a little water.
It is the texture and perfect degree of hardness of this surface which is a particular feature of the Ogatsu Suzuri.
The stones are made from a type of slate and are either black or a deep indigo in color, have a rich luster and a smooth surface.
Some highly fashioned, others are almost as they were mined.
Ogatsu Suzuri is made in Ogachimachi, Ishinomaki-shi, Miyagi, and the history is very old, and it is said that we sail up early in the Muromachi era.
Part which is the most important for inkstone is edged point (gurnard) which plays a role as tooth when we grind sumi. Roughness, thinness, hardness,
the softness of this sharp temper are just right for characteristic of Ogatsu Suzuri; is balanced.
Color is rich with black or dark indigo blue; is shiny, and the surface of a stone is smooth.
It is one article of complete handicraft by Master of Traditional Crafts.
