A Tactile World of Japanese Art & Craft Paper

Giraffy’s Japanese Art & Craft Paper collection brings color and texture into your creative rhythm. Whether you’re folding a crane, layering a collage, or experimenting with chigiri-e, these sheets support the process with grace and balance.

This is a paper designed to inspire, inviting you to return to the simple joy of creating something with your hands and time.

Made for Hands and Imagination

There’s a softness to washi paper that you don’t find elsewhere. The fibers stretch, shape, and hold without tearing ideal for both beginners and practiced artists. Each piece of Japanese paper in this collection carries a light texture that adds dimension without overpowering your work. Giraffy selects sheets that feel balanced in weight and tone, letting your ideas breathe. Whether used for handwritten notes, origami, or layering, these papers transform everyday moments into small acts of design. With every fold or tear, you’re reminded of how form and feeling meet in craft.

Paper That Holds Tradition and Craft

The best part about working with Japanese craft paper is how naturally it fits into your process. It holds pigment well, moves easily between mediums, and never feels ordinary. That’s because every sheet of Japanese art paper in this collection comes from makers who understand the quiet power of good materials. Whether you're wrapping, mounting, or sketching, the paper responds gently to your touch. It brings history into your hands offering a medium that’s both practical and poetic, just like the traditions it comes from.

Rooted in the Art of Washi
