Thai Paper | Momigami DS | 10 COLOUR OPTIONS AVAILABLE

With skilled hands and attention to detail, artisans combine ancient methods and contemporary practices to create beautiful, versatile, and eco-friendly paper. First, the kozo plant, also known as the paper mulberry tree, is harvested and the bark is peeled off the branches. The bark is then air-dried and sorted by age and quality. Afterwards, the strips of kozo bark are washed and soaked overnight to soften the fibres before being cooked, resulting in soft yet durable fibres. If needed, the fibres can be bleached. Once cooked, the tissue is meticulously inspected and any impurities or fibre knots are carefully removed by hand. Lastly, the kozo tissues are beaten into a fine pulp, ready for creating exquisite kozo papers.

Momigami is the Japanese word for “kneaded paper.”  Momigami DS is made of kozo paper that has been hand-crinkled and features a unique double-sided design, with 2 colours bonded together. The result is a sturdy and flexible product with a distinct fabric-like texture.
