The Japanese Paper Place - Potluck - Kozo Tissue Assortment - Eggshell - 9 Sheets - 25 grams - 6x8.5" - POT11744

Washi is the Japanese word for the traditional papers made from the long inner fibres of three plants, wa meaning Japanese and shi meaning paper. As Japan rushes with the rest of the world into the 21st Century, and more modern technologies take over, machines produce similar-looking papers which have qualities very different from authentic washi. As of the fall of 2008, there remained fewer than 350 families still engaged in the production of paper by hand

-Kozo fibre tissues are strong, translucent papers with various textures great for layering and collage. Includes 7 sheets of 8.5" x 11", Chiri White, Manilla Gampi (Wagami), Tama Tampopo, Kinari Chiri, Itoiri, Unryu Tissue White Light, and Mutsu Tissue. Plus 2 long strips of Kozo Tissue in various patterns and a hand dyed Silk or Itajime
