Kitakata's resilience makes it ideal for printmaking, drawing, mixed media, book art and alternative photography. Kitakata's gampi fibers exhibit natural sizing-like characteristics thus requiring no additional sizing. This paper is acid-free and made from 90% Gampi and 10% High Alpha Cellulose.
The Fujimori family has owned and operated the centuries-old Awagami paper factory since the late 1700s. While they are committed to preserving the nearly 2000-year-old Japanese paper making tradition, they are also continually moving forward in the craft, honing modern techniques and practices. The result is a highly diverse range of top quality fine art papers.
