It is not mass produced. Every sheet is slightly different, and unique.\u003cbr\u003eThe technique is called Unryu Sunago. During the papermaking process, long unrefined kozo (mulberry) fibers are left visible inside the sheet, creating a cloud-like texture you can see and feel. Real gold and silver leaf fragments are then scattered by hand into the wet fibers, not printed, not coated. Embedded. The result is a paper that carries a quiet shimmer, subtle and honest.\u003cbr\u003eIt is thin and semi-translucent, but surprisingly strong. The mulberry fibers give it a durability that machine-made paper cannot replicate.\u003cbr\u003eThis paper works beautifully for sumi-e painting, Japanese calligraphy, bookbinding, collage, art journaling, and fine paper crafts. It also makes a striking base for pressed flower work, wrapping precious objects, or simply keeping.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSourced and hand-carried in a single, limited batch from Kyoto.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTechnical Details:\u003cbr\u003e• Origin: Kyoto, Japan\u003cbr\u003e• Material: Handcrafted Kozo (Mulberry) fibers, Gold \u0026amp; Silver leaf\u003cbr\u003e• Dimensions: 22.0 cm x 25.5 cm\u003cbr\u003e• Appearance: Translucent with visible organic fibers and metallic flecks\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAvailable Options:\u003cbr\u003e• 5 Sheets: A curated selection of sheets, ideal for testing and intricate accent work.\u003cbr\u003e• Original Factory Pack (20 Sheets): A complete, untouched pack sealed in its original Kyoto workshop packaging.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHandling:\u003cbr\u003eThis is a delicate, artisan material.
