Review on 🖋️ Easyou Shanghai Xiling Ink Paste Chinese Seal Red Ink Pad 30g (1.06oz) + CastorF Mixing Solution 10g: Enhanced Seal Paste Experience by Kristen Reid

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great price, great product.

I ordered this stone seal ink paste that I cut myself for my work and let me tell you it was the best purchase I could have made. I was surprised at how thick the paste actually was when I held it in my hands, but it was far from dry. When I touched it with my finger, it left a very light fingerprint on the paper for the first time, and mixing it before first use was definitely an educational experience that turned out to be almost as fun as the drawing and painting itself! It's so much fun to play with because it sticks to the stir stick. In the end it works perfectly. It's SUPER sticky and sticks like glue to the print I made until I apply it to the paper and it leaves a vibrant bright orange stamp which I'm very happy with for my first batch. It's worth the extra money for the starter kit without ordering the same quality pasta at a dollar a gram. The dish itself is a bit small, probably too small for large seals, but that's easily remedied by mixing the noodles in with a small dome or mound in the middle. The paste holds its shape well when you play with it and the color is just amazing. Perfect for giving a sudden burst of vibrant color to a black and white painting, loves to fight and win when printed over graphite and charcoal and I was able to successfully set my print over a carefully polished Prismacolor Premier colored pencil. If you want to experiment with Chinese seals for your work, this is a great place to start.
