Pick up this great gift idea. For thousands of years Zen Buddhist monks have been painting with water on stone as a meditation on impermanence--making ephemeral marks that disappear as the water evaporates. This hand-cut slate tablet and brush set encourages a similar practice to express wishes and affirmations practice sumi-e (brush painting) and calligraphy and focus your mind through a creative exercise. The tablet can be used over and over again; just add a little water and an open mind. Slate handmade in Seal Rock Oregon by Kelly Barker. Brush imported. Essential Details: Handmade Item.
