I belive this article needs a well writen section on the types of pounce used in calligraphy, ie Gum Sandarac which is used as a resist to avoid feathering and cuttlefish bone which is used to absord excess ink afterwards. They where usually mixed together for convenience. Unfortuntely I do not belive that I could add a section of sufficient quality (I can write nicely, but am not so good at composition). 2A00:23C3:37D0:5100:D482:2842:1333:AA51 ( talk) 04:12, 20 January 2017 (UTC) reply
