Description
Awagami Bamboo Sumi Paper is a fine organic choice for artist and designer alike exhibiting notable benefits and advantages over cotton-based papers. Awagami Bamboo papers’ luxurious texture is similar to silk while softer than cotton making it an excellent choice for both letterpress, printmaking and sumi ink. Available in sized sheets, Awagami Bamboo Paper contains 70% bamboo fiber and 30% mixed recycled content. We use Sumi paper for our eco-printing workshops, here at Blueway Art Studio. Sumi bamboo paper is extremely absorbent, therefore works for eco-printing.
Bamboo is deeply rooted in Japanese culture and has touched every aspect of daily life from art and literature, to design, food and crafts for many centuries. Bamboo ustencils dating from the Jomon Period (ca.10,000 B.C-300 B.C.) have been discovered in both Honshu and Kyushu indicating that bamboo has been used in Japan ever since the earliest years of its civilization. Keeping in line with Japans’ rich and time honored bamboo legacy. Awagami Factory has now proudly created Awagami Bamboo Paper.- Minimum order of 5 sheets overall
