Collection: Brown Sumi Ink (Cha-Zumi Ink)

CHABOKU

Ink That Reveals Beautiful Brown Shades

Most ink sticks available today are oil soot inks, which naturally produce a slight brownish tone when diluted. However, the brown sumi ink (Chaboku) introduced here allows for an even deeper and richer brown expression depending on how it is used.

Chaboku performs beautifully as both a dense, concentrated ink and a soft, diluted ink wash. This versatility—its ability to create warm, earthy tones as well as refined light shades—is what makes brown sumi ink so appealing. It is an ideal choice for calligraphy, sumi-e, and artwork where a gentle, natural color presence is desired.
