Chiyogami Japanese papers are inspired by patterns on kimono fabrics dating from the Edo period and are hand silkscreened using intense colours with gold overlay. It is easy to adm ire Chiyogami for its beauty alone but what is even more impressive is understanding the time and craftsmanship that goes into making just a single sheet. Handmade by a small number of paper making families throughout Japan, each layer of colour on a single sheet of Chiyogami is individually silkscreened, with as many colours as there are in that particular pattern - in most case, four or five colours.
