Review on Teagas Chinese Brush Set For Calligraphy Writing With Ink And Xuan Rice Paper - Ideal For Sumi Art by Pete Deutsch

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Nice, but damaged paper

This shipment came quickly. The Rice Paper arrived in the sturdy envelope , which I really like, however, the paper inside was DAMAGED on both the Upper and lower ends! the paper it was shipped with (RANGER YUPO PAPER, 8"x10", 5 sheets) was damaged also: its packaging was almost completely torn off and EACH ONE of the •very expensive at this price and size• sheets was full of crinkles and creases! Because this is plasticized paper, unlike the Teagas paper, I cannot iron out the damages.This damage does NOT seem to have occurred in shipping as the outer packaging and filler were intact; rather, this seems to be a storage/warehousing issue (or I was shipped TWO parcels of someone else's returned and damaged merchandise!) I'm very disappointed with this shipment.Avis Patterson. 012020
