Hiroshi Hirono A washi paper card case with an attractive, innovative design! A collaboration between artists from Akan Lake Ainu Kotan and Yamaji Paper Mill in Fukui Prefecture, w hich produces Echizen washi. Ainu patterns are expressed using Yamaji Paper Mill's unique "floating paper" technique. The design is characterized by a blend of nostalgic atmosphere and fresh originality. It can be used not only as a business card holder but also as a loyalty card holder or a mini wallet. The exterior uses "floating paper", while the interior uses durable, long-fiber kozo paper. Because the two types of paper are stitched together, it has a sturdy construction suitable for daily use. Recommended as a souvenir for visitors from overseas or as a gift for those who appreciate Japanese history and traditional crafts. Available in two colors this time: ochre and light blue.
