Washi is the Japanese word for the traditional papers made from the long inner fibers of three plants,
wa meaning Japanese and shi meaning paper. As Japan rushes with the rest of the world into
the 21st Century, and more modern technologies take over, machines produce similar looking papers
which have qualities very different from authentic Washi.
Washi has been used traditionally in screens and lanterns and more recently in shutters and blinds
to utilize its translucency. Mino, 'silk', seikaiha and unryu are commonly used. After being moistened,
Washi will shrink slightly when it dries, thereby tightening it more securely on a frame
