Description
The Japanese Paint Dish for Mokuhanga & Printing Inks is a traditional ceramic mixing dish designed for use in woodblock printing and relief printmaking. Crafted in the renowned pottery region of Jingdezhen, this high-quality dish offers durability, stability, and refined usability for both beginners and experienced printmakers.
The dish features a weighted, solid construction that helps keep it stable during mixing and ink preparation. Its carefully moulded pool shape is designed to control liquid movement, preventing inks and pigments from spreading too thinly while maintaining an even working consistency. This makes it especially useful for water-based inks commonly used in mokuhanga and traditional Japanese printmaking.
The smooth glazed surface allows inks and pigments to be mixed evenly and cleaned away easily after use. The ceramic material is resistant to staining and suitable for repeated studio use, making it a reliable and long-lasting addition to any printmaking setup.
Designed with practicality in mind, the dish is stackable, helping to save space and keep work areas organised. Whether used for pigment preparation, ink mixing, or colour holding during multi-layer printing, this traditional pottery dish provides a stable and dependable working surface.
Material: Pottery. Made in Jingdezhen.
