Rice Papers

Tesuki-Washi Echizen sheets are a stunning traditional handmade Japanese paper constructed from 40% Kozo fibers and 60% hemp. It has a truly unique surface texture and deckled edge, with no two sheets ever the same. Due to its handmade nature, each sheet size as well as squaredness varies slightly. With a gorgeous surface and one of a kind feel, it prints well in both black and white and color applications, and we recommend imagery with some open space to allow its texture to shine through. A1+ size deckled edge sheets come in at approximately 26” x 39”, and we highly recommend printing at a size that accommodates the full sheet of paper to retain the natural deckle.

Unryu Thin reflects a classic Japanese aesthetic elevated by the swirling visible mulberry fibers through the paper. This beautiful semi-transparent paper is recommended for work seeking visible texture as its fibers remain visible even through swathes of ink. It prints illustrations and select photography particularly well. It has a thin weight, making it a delicate paper to work with and handle.

This white tone washi paper provides a beautiful bright white base that is suited for a variety of fine art reproductions, particularly line drawings and painted watercolors. We would not recommend printing ink-heavy images on this paper, due to the slightly lower level of ink absorption in washi papers. At its weight, this paper is suitable for projects or images that require a stronger construction while still being semi-transparent.

An identical paper to Kozo Thick White, just with a warmer tone. This paper is ideal for projects that call for a very strong paper that is still semi-transparent.

This thin kozo paper made by Epson has a natural warm tone, and refined surface. Part of their 'signature-worthy' line, this paper is a premium substrate for all kinds of imagery, from photography to painting.

This Bizan Handmade paper is one of the most exquisite and luxurious papers made by Awagami Factory. Each sheet is handmade, and must be specially ordered in sizes A2 or A3. With a weight of 300 g/sm, it is one of the heaviest papers carried by the mill. It has a warm vintage paper tone, and is suitable for all types of images including detailed photography, despite its textured surface. Each sheet has 4 sides of organically-milled deckle.
