About our wholesale lines

Cardstocks

Cardstocks

Our Japanese cardstocks come in an enticing range of over 60 colours and surface treatments, from subly fibred pastels, to metallics, to richly coloured and textured Linens and Iwahadas.

Most are laser-printable and photocopier compatible, making them ideal for invitations, menus and signage. All are available in parent sheets of 43 x 31" or half, 8.5 x 11" or sets of twenty-five A7-sized sheets.


Chiyogami (Yuzen)

Chiyogami, also known as Yuzen, is by far our most popular line of paper.  These hand-silkscreened repeat pattern papers are wonderful for collage, bookbinding, invitations - the sky's the limit. With over 600 patterns to choose from, you are sure to find something to your liking!

You will also find reference lists of our old Geo Chiyo and Kyo-Komon stocks. Since they have been discontinued by the supplier, we have listed which patterns are gone, which we still have stock for and which have been reprinted as Chiyogami.


Gifts

Gifts

In addition to our paper, we offer a variety of paper-covered and paper-related gift items.

These include stationery sets, notepaper, pencils, pen stands, business card holders and many other items.

 


Katazome-shi

"Katazome-shi" literally means stencil-dyed (katazome) papers (-shi), and is also referred to as "Wazome." As the name implies, they are stencilled - with traditional materials, and the care that comes with craftsmanship by hand - to produce unforgettable, intense colours and patterns.

Treasured particularly for covering books and boxes (or simply framing), they are available in full sheets only of 24 x 36".


Opaque Patterned Papers

Our collection of Japanese opaque papers is second to none.  In this section you will find some twenty of our most popular lines in a variety of colours.  This is only a fraction of our opaque selection - check back regularly, as we update our online selection.

Since most are laser-printable and photocopier-compatible, they are popular for invitations, menus and signage, but their lower price point also makes them favoured with collage artists and scrapbookers. All papers are available in 8.5 x 11" as well as parent sheets of 43 x 31" or half.


Tissues

In this section you will find our full range of watermark tissues, with over a dozen patterns and in a range of colours. These fine, strong, translucent patterned tissues are excellent for collage, shades and overlays. Full sheet sizes vary, but start at 21 x 31".

Also here are obonai feather and kanji-patterned tissues, thin papers perfect for gift wraps or layering.  All sheets are 21 x 31". Obonai Feather Tissues   Kanji-patterned Tissues

Origami Paper

Origami Papers

With over 100 different sizes and patterns of origami paper in stock, including our own house brand, we are one of the largest suppliers of origami paper in Canada.
