Group B Washi Paper
Very Good Quality Papers - left to right:
Torinoko White, Torinoko Cream, Torinoko Light Weight
Paper colors will depend on your monitor. To see accurate colors, we recommend a Washi Sample Book.
These versatile papers are of very good quality. They are either handmade, or partially so, from a mixture of fiber and buffered, acid free wood pulp. Of medium-light to heavyweight, all are strong enough to handle multi-block printing. This group of medium priced Washi is recommended for serious students and professional printmakers on a budget.
Different printing papers can be combined to qualify for the quantity discounts.
Paper is shipped rolled. If you prefer that we ship it flat, tell us in the box marked "Special Instructions" in the Shopping Cart. With few exceptions, shipping fees will be substantially higher because of the size of the package. Please let us know if you would like to know these fees before we ship.

Very smooth on one side and fairly rough on the other, this 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) |
