$579.95

This Japanese Sumi Tsubo Carpenter Tool is a traditional inking device used by craftsmen to mark straight lines on wood. Hand-carved from dark wood, it features a reservoir for ink and a spool for cord, which when pulled and snapped against the surface, leaves a precise guideline. Worn from years of practical use, this piece carries the patina and character of authentic Japanese joinery work. Both a functional antique and a collectible artifact, it highlights the ingenuity and precision of traditional woodworking tools.
