JAPANESE ART PAPERS

Our Japanese Art Papers are intended for use by artists for making original art works. While some are dyed, others are natural papers, bleached by snow and sunshine. Some are very smooth and even, while others are crinkled or have visible threads and fibres. Depending on their weight and other characteristics they can be used for drawing, painting, calligraphy, printmaking, stitching, dyeing, chine collé and collage, including Chigiri-e, which uses torn and layered papers.

​

We recommend Yamato Nori paste for use with all our Japanese papers.

​

Our selection is small, but we plan to expand it, and we can order many other art papers if there's one you want that we don't have, or you'd like bigger sheets. Just ask!
