Extraordinarily beautiful, finely carved, natural slate Inkstone, will be cherished. Very carefully packaged and shipped. Am so deeply grateful.
-
Beautiful stone! The support and communication from inkston was amazing as my stone was challenged by the pandemic first in China and then in the rest of the world. It took a long time to get it due to the virus but well worth the wait.

Very pretty & smooth… came in descent time (due to Corona) … well divided. I love it thank you.

Perfetto
Come da descrizione
Bello e tradizionale
Imballato e presentato con cura semplice ed elegante -
The ink stone works well, but isn’t exactly as pictured. My stone has no raised portion in the well. I frankly like the one I received even better than the one pictured!
-
Product looks very good quality, thanks

Une très belle et très large pierre à encre. L’emballage était parfait!

My 8 inch stone is nice and heavy and produces silky smooth ink.

Sorry, I had trouble with the PC The inkstone was marvellous, I am really pleased with it. I cannot leave feedback on this PC though, so I hope this email will suffice. Best wishes. Christine.

Perfecta de textura para el tamaño que tiene. 20 cm. De diámetro. Muy suave y bien pulida. De agradecer la tapa de piedra, q permite hacer mayor cantidad de tinta y utilizarla al día siguiente. Bien embalada.
-
Extraordinaria piedra , de unas dimensiones más que considerables.
Pesada y muy estable.
La circunferencia de rayado es la ideal, y la tinta se va depositando en la parte inferior.
Excelente relación calidad/precio. -
Magnifique pierre à encre ronde de 12 cm
Merci à Inkston pour cette pierre à encre pas onéreuse, qui est très certainement en ardoise, très pratique avec son couvercle de 12 cm.
Elle peux contenir jusqu’à 140 ml d’eau, presque 15 cl, c’est très pratique quand on doit faire des grands format, de plus elle est étanche une fois le couvercle remis dessus, j’ai testé.
La pierre est livré avec une feuille de papier de 70 X 67 cm, qu’il suffit d’humidifier pour ôter tous les plis, cette feuille se trouve dans une très belle enveloppe cartonné rouge, très sympa.
L’emballage était super sécuritaire et de ce fait tout est arrivé à bon port.
Que du bon Inkston, continuez, merci encore. -
Grande soddisfazione
Un ottimo prodotto che vale tutti i soldi spesi. Qualità della pietra, belle dimensioni, imballaggio super protettivo come pochi. Aggiungeteci la cortesia del corriere che in mia assenza ha gentilmente lasciato il pacco sulla porta di casa. Cosa desiderare di più? -
Schöner Stein
Der Stein ist grob verarbeitet. Keine scharfen Kanten. Er ist schön schwer und rutsch beim herstellen der Farbe nicht hin und her.
-
Muy buena relación calidad-precio, y desde luego mi mejor piedra por ahora, de todas las q tengo. Echaría en falta alguna piedra con tapa para q la tinta se seque más lentamente. Un placer trabajar con ella.
-
por cierto, hay una piedra redonda con tapa aquí, luego se debe añadir mas..
