Sample Book - Chiyogami
A sample pack of our current range of Chiyogami papers.
Each piece is coded on the reverse and comes hole punched and inserted into an A6 Shepherds sample folder.
Handmade in studios around Kyoto, Japan, these beautiful pattern papers have a vibrancy and attention to detail that is second to none.
To create a sheet of Chiyogami, each colour is screen printed by hand, most patterns having 4 or 5 colours, some as many as 12. Each sheet must be dried between applications and the next colour registered with fine precision.
Despite its light weight this paper is strong and forgiving with good wet strength making it perfect for bookbinding, origami, boxmaking, collage and card making, covering furniture and walls - the creative possibilities are endless.
- The base sheet is a machine made mixture of Kozo and Sulphite.
- Handles adhesives well without stretching.
Size: A6 - 148 x 105mm
