Photo Washi Paper
Echizen washi paper makers use their traditional skills and techniques with cotton to produce this handmade washi paper.
Unlike glossy paper, washi paper gives your photos a soft, gentle feel. Try a sheet in your home inkjet printer and see the difference for yourself.

Kyubei Stationery Series (Mixed Paper Memo Pads)
This Kyubei Stationery memo pad is made from Hagami, or Echizen washi paper that comes out irregular when it's made. The pages feature patterns made in the paper itself, such as traditional arabesque and checkered patterns, letting the light peek through the paper to emphasize its beauty.
In addition to memo pads, note paper, envelopes, and other stationery made with Echizen washi paper are available in a variety of beautiful designs, and they make the perfect souvenir for classmates or coworkers.
