1, Taohe inkstone, Zhou Tao, Gansu

The raw material of Taohe inkstone is a kind of water rock, also known as diabase, which is named after it is produced on the bank of Taohe River in Zhuoni Yantao Township, Gannan Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture, Gansu Province. This place originally belonged to ancient Zhou Tao, hence its name. Taohe inkstone has many textures, and its stone color is basically green, including dark green, green, brilliant green, green, light green, gray green and other varieties, so some people confuse it with pine stone and green tail stone.

2. Duanyan Stone in Zhaoqing City, Guangdong Province

Duanyan is a specialty of Zhaoqing City, Guangdong Province, and a symbolic product of chinese national geography. Guangdong inkstone is one of the four famous inkstones in China, which is as famous as Yan Tao in Gansu, She Yan in Anhui and Chengni inkstone in Shaanxi. It was produced in Duanzhou in the early Tang Dynasty (now Duan Xi, the eastern suburb of Zhaoqing City, Guangdong Province), hence the name Duanyan, with a history of 1300 years.

3. Sheyan in Shexian County, Anhui Province

She inkstone is one of the four famous inkstones in China. Since the Tang Dynasty, it has been known to the world together with Duanyan. She inkstone is produced in Weilongshan, Wuyuan County, Jiangxi Province. Wuyuan has belonged to Zhou She since the early Tang Dynasty. Most stone inkstones were carved and made in Shexian County, Anhui Province, where Zhou She was located, so it was called "She Yan".

4. Cheng Niyan of Xinjiang County, Shaanxi Province

Due to the processing and firing of special cement, the firing process and time of Cheng Ni inkstone are different. Some inkstones are multi-colored, paying special attention to carving techniques, such as relief, half-tire, three-dimensional and transparent. Cheng Ni inkstone is made of washed fine mud, so the texture of Cheng Ni inkstone is delicate, just like baby's skin, and it has the characteristics that water will not dry up, it will not freeze thoroughly, it will not damage ink, and it can moisturize and win water, which is comparable to good inkstone. Therefore, there are many praises from predecessors.

The use and maintenance of famous inkstone;

1, usually storing water.

Ink also needs to be moistened and stored with clear water every day. Ink should not be short of water. People used to call it "nourishing research".

Step 2 use water exchange

Don't be lazy and grind the ink directly with the inkstone, and don't think that the ink ground with tea and sugar water is "unique". When these things are mixed with ink, the color of the ink will be greatly reduced, and no ink will be produced. Hot water damages ink, remember to avoid it.

Step 3 brush your teeth after use

After the inkstone is used up, the remaining ink must be washed off and not condensed on the inkstone. Otherwise, the residual ink will form a slag block, which will hinder grinding and damage the brush strokes and the surface of the inkstone. If mixed with new ink, there is no advantage of inking or inking.

4, new ink light grinding

This new ink has sharp edges and corners. If you grind hard, it is easy to damage the ink surface. When in use, it can be lightly ground.
