大雪 (Daxue) Major Snow 7 November 2017
Due to Covid-19 related international shipping issues, the shop will be closed until the pandemic is under control. Please take care of yourself and stay safe! Meanwhile you can still browse sold items and the rest of the site.
大 雪 (daxue) meaning "Major Snow" is the 21st solar term under the traditional Chinese lunar calendar and the third winter solar term. The weather turns colder and there is a greater possibility of snow, especially heavy snows.
I have copied out Tang dynasty poet 白居易 Bai Juyi's 《夜雪》(Night Snow) with a glass pen and black ink with blue shimmer (the shimmer is hard to photograph).
For those curious, a English translation of the poem is here.
