Kyoto “Kurotani Washi” × Kyoto “Wagasa shop Tsujikura
A traditional craft that has been protected and nurtured through a long history.
Kurotani Washi,” the paper-making village in Ayabe, Kyoto, is a very rare type of Japanese paper that is made entirely by hand by craftsmen.
Kurotani washi is used in the restoration of cultural properties because of its durability and longevity, and its ability to withstand long-term preservation.
Tsujikura’s Wagasa is made from this rare Kurotani Unryu paper.
The Kurotani paper seems to float beautifully when it is held up to the sun.
We make our products from the finest raw materials.
We hope you will feel the long story of how it is made.
