Price: 37.0 USD

The paper-wrapped brush "SHIBIEN," bearing the inscription meaning "imperial court," is a new creation by Hankeido, made for the first time in 20 years. The label was written by calligrapher Satoshi Nemoto, who also provided the calligraphy for the title and served as a calligraphy advisor for the same drama. The brushes used in the 2024 NHK historical drama "Hikari no Kimi e" are paper-wrapped brushes, with tips that have the same length and balance as "Shibien."

＊Maki Fude, also known as a paper-wrapped or cored brush, is made by wrapping and solidifying a core of hair with washi paper, then adding another layer of hair on top and tightening it with hemp. This was the predominant brush-making technique until the end of the Edo period.

筆 from 攀桂堂 Hankeido

HANKEIDO is a unique workshop in the world that exclusively carries on the ancient craft of making "Maki Fude (written as 巻筆）" that have been handed down through generations, preserving the tradition and demonstrating exceptional Shokunin spirit. Here, brushes known as "MAKI FUDE (巻筆)" , also called "Yūshinfude" (written as 有芯筆), are meticulously crafted .
"Yūshin-fude refers to a type of brush pen where hairs are wrapped with Japanese WASHI paper around a core and then topped with additional hairs.
All 18 types of the oldest brushes preserved in the Shōsōin (Imperial Repository) from the eighth-century Heian period in Japan are of the yūshin-fude type, and they represent the most ancient form of brushes that still exist today.
