Hello,

I am helping a friend working on a College project that needs an "Enso" scroll in a specific size 7 1/2" x 13" done by a master Japanese Calligrapher. She is really in need of a very old piece but we have not had any luck in finding one. Might you have any source to meet this requirement?

Could you please provide the cost and the amount of time required to get a quality Enso scroll from you? Is there a choice of material to be worked on that we can select from?

Thank you for your time and consideration.

Those measurements are almost microscopic.

I can build something like this:

...which is my extra-small size.

Just the wooden knobs and silk border come to more than 7 inches in width. There would be no room left for the paper (and Enso circle).

The Japanese master calligrapher fee is $50, and the minimum wall scroll price is $22.88
So, you're looking at $72.88

I'd suggest a larger size to get your money's worth anyway. They look fantastic at a large size:
