Hubi, originated in Huzhou, Zhejiang, has a history of more than 2,000 years. As early as the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the lake pen has emerged. After the Qin, Han, Tang, Song, Yuan, Ming, Qing and other dynasties, the lake pen has always been the first of the four treasures of the study.
Its emergence has greatly promoted the development of Chinese calligraphy, painting and other arts.
The process of making the lake pen is ingenious. From material selection to finished products, it needs to go through more than 120 processes such as dipping, dialing, carding, and assembly.
Each process requires craftsmen to figure out and carefully craft. It is this meticulous spirit that has enabled the lake pen to maintain excellent quality for thousands of years.
The lake pen is not only a writing instrument, but also the inheritance of Chinese culture. It has witnessed the glorious history of Chinese civilization and carries the feelings and wisdom of countless literati and artists.
Lake Pen, this thousand-year-old artistic treasure, is waiting for us to discover, appreciate, and inherit.
