In the set of Hanasuesuzuri, use of tend to water in care of the cause can be very little preparation and you clean up.
Using a set of such Hanasuesuzuri, we will introduce the use of the writing instrument.

What you need
Hanasuesuzuri set (Hanasuesuzuri-writing brush, ink sponge)
Water (please keep in contained to some extent in the sponge)
Underlay (thick felt in emergency If you do not have can also be used)
Hanshi (or Please prepare postcards and colored paper such as your favorite thing for the postcard)

１. スポンジに含ませた水を２～３滴、硯の平らな部分の真ん中に垂らします。
硯の平らな部分を「陸（おか）」といいます。これに対し、へこんでいる部分は「海（うみ）」、海へと流れる部分を「波止（はと）」と言います。硯を自然の景色に見立てる、これは文人・墨客や趣味人の遊びです。

1. water 2 to 3_ droplets were included in the sponge, it dropped in the middle of the flat portion of the ink stone.
A flat part of the ink stone, “hill (you do),” or, referred to as “deep-fried (Uege)”. On the other hand, the part that is recessed the “sea (sea)”, refers to the part that flows to the sea as “Namitome (pigeon)”. Name that was likened to the sea in the ink stone, you glimpse the flavor of old-fashioned hobby people.

２. 墨を親指・人差し指・中指の三本で持ち、平らな面を垂らした水につけ、縦に長い「の」の字を書くように墨を擦ります。
セットの彩墨では、薄ければ淡い色が、濃ければ黒に近い色になります。好みの濃度で書いて下さい。墨の水気はしっかりと拭き取ります。墨は水分に弱く加水分解をおこしひび割れてきます。

2. Hold a three-of ink the thumb, index finger, middle finger, with a flat surface in the water hanging in the vertical, you slide the ink in the ink stone so that the shape of the long vertical “no”.
In Saisumi of the set, thin if pale coloring will be the dark color close to the black if dark Yukere. Once I stopped the hand at a concentration of taste, wipe firmly on the wet part of the ink. In fact, ink, if even wipe properly after each use a damp, I ink to be acclaimed in much use world.

３.左の画像のように、紙・硯を配置します。海の墨を薄くしたいときや、乾燥したときには水を足してください。花陶硯の書道セットでは、とにかく少ない水で文字を書く事ができますので、書道で心配な汚れや、飛び散りの心配が少なくて済みます。

3. Hanshi placed underlay, to set the ink stone in a location that does not interfere with hand effectiveness, in a sea of ink stone (dent portion), leave hanging the water of sponge about 5 drops.
While you are writing a book, or worse have been dry the ink of the ink stone, such as when I wanted to use a pale ink, sea water is used To restlessly. In Hanasuesuzuri of calligraphy set, you can write a letter in anyway less water. So you need less dirt and worry, worry of scattering is in calligraphy.

４.筆のキャップを取り、そのまま筆身の頭にキャップをはめると穂先が出てきます。墨を穂先全体にしっかりと含ませます。
通常の小筆では全体の半分しか墨を含ませませんが、この特注の熊野筆では、筆の根元の使わない範囲を金属で締めているので、余分に墨を吸ってしまったり型崩れの心配がありません。また、化粧筆の構造を採用してますので、簡単コンパクトな収納が可能です。筆に含ませる墨の量や形を整える時には、硯の縁の釉薬がかかったところを使って下さい。陸（おか･平らな部分）を使うと穂先が磨耗し痛みが進んでしまいます。硯の陸は非常に目の細かい紙やすりみたいなものだからです。

4. Take the brush of the cap, you put out the brush as it fit the cap to the opposite side. It included firmly on the ink that trough in the brush.
In the calligraphy brush used only towards the brush first, but this brush Kumano of custom-made, because they tighten the base of the brush firmly in the metal, there is no extra worry of their shape or I smoked the ink. In addition, you can easily compact storage by adopting the structure of the makeup brushes. Kumano brush with a delicate waist is an excellent brush with a smooth writing comfort. When adjust the brush of moisture content and form, and the edge, by straining the brush in the slippery and then took the handle a portion of the glaze of the part at the time of the hill, not scratching the surface of the brush, to preserve the brush can do.

１. 筆が含んでいる墨をやさしく洗い流し、穂先を真っ直ぐに整えてキャップをします。
穂先が型崩れせず、次回使う際にも快適に使用できます。
