Instructions and tools for practicing the ancient art of Chinese calligraphy have never been easier or more affordable. Growing interest in Asian arts, coupled with a trend toward creative self-expression, make this a timely how-to kit. Contains everything pot, ink, stone, spoon, brushes, paper, and an instruction book.
The book is probably as short as can be while still being a fine quick-start introduction to the art. Haven't tried out the kit yet, but looks like a good first-try set.
