I have bought some for my school in China Town in London. At least 2 shops are there. I suggest to buy ink stones and ink sticks rather than to buy liquid ink because the kids like to make the liquid ink by themselves. Small ink stone £2.99/each, a box of ink sticks (4-6) £19.99, brush £1.50-£1.99/each. You can also buy the papers. However, you may buy a small bottle of liquid ink £4.99-£5.99.

Subject: Chinese calligraphy brushes
I need to buy a set (about 25) of calligraphy brushes and some liquid ink for school use.
This is for primary pupils to "have a go" so I am looking for something cheap as they will probably get wrecked quickly.
Can anyone recommend a supplier, preferably which does mail order as I am nowhere near London/Manchester?
Thanks for your collective wisdom, which is always so helpful
