A versatile, high quality paper with subtle laid lines that can be used for moku hanga as well as western printmaking techniques. Crisp to the touch, Ise is strong enough to withstand multiple block printmaking if it is not overly dampened. Also suitable for book arts. Tears very well. Sized, handmade (four deckle edges) SPECIAL ORDER ONLY Please allow eight to ten weeks for paper to arrive from Japan.

Very smooth on one side and fairly rough on the other, this very heavy machine-made paper is sized for moku hanga. Traditionally you print on the smooth side, but either side can be used. It also works well for western-style printmaking techniques, including wood engraving, if lightly dampened first. Sized, machine made (no deckles) |

This very uniform, fine fibered handmade paper is translucent and soft to the touch; a lovely paper for book arts as well as any printmaking technique. Takes ink beautifully. An exceptional bargain for paper this well made containing such a high percentage of gampi, a fiber that is becoming increasingly rare in Japan. Tears exceptionally well. Sized, handmade (four deckle edges) |
