Added trade stats, quest uses, and handling notes
Calligraphic Paintings is an unpackaged Trade Goods in Crimson Desert. It represents brush-made artwork on paper or silk and is treated as a luxury collectible that can be traded, packaged, or used during specific faction requests.
Do not treat every copy as disposable vendor loot. The same item is used in quest handoffs, most notably Prox's Request, where losing or selling the paintings can stop the delivery step from completing until another copy is obtained.

Receive it during Prox's Request as the counterfeit good that must be delivered to the investigator.
Receive or handle copies during A Secret Deal, where the paintings appear alongside Ceramic and Silk as goods to sell.
Farm Noble Punter enemies if you need another copy; item data lists Calligraphic Paintings as a possible drop.
As an unpackaged trade good, Calligraphic Paintings can be sold through trade-good channels or packaged through the camp wagon workflow. The packaged form is a separate trade item with a larger stack size and a higher listed sell price.
When a quest needs the paintings, finish the handoff before packaging or selling them. This prevents the item from being converted or removed before the quest checks your inventory.
In Prox's Request, Prox gives the paintings as counterfeit goods and sends the player to the Goldleaf Trading Post investigator.
If the delivery prompt does not appear, first confirm the paintings are still in inventory. The quest step depends on having the item available for handoff.
For A Secret Deal, the paintings are one of several goods involved in the sale step, so avoid mixing them with regular trading stock until the quest is complete.
