I received a lovely and generous Christmas present from one of my doctoral students who graduated a few years ago. Along with a Midro A5 notebook (which I have never tried), she brought back from Japan an old inkwell that belonged to her grandfather (and maybe even great-grandfather). This set appears to be from the 1930s maybe?
I felt a little guilty cleaning out the ink residue, but also curious about whether it was from powdered ink.
This will have an honored and cherished place on my desk.
