Korean Hanji Paper Roll - 20GSM - Watermark Tissue - FLOWER WITH STEM - 25" x 65'

Hanji Floral Watermark Tissue

The term hanji translates to “paper from Korea” or “Korean paper,” specifically traditional paper handmade from the inner bark of the paper mulberry plant. Paper Mulberry is found commonly throughout Asia, but is localized in Korea to the foothills of the nation’s many mountain ranges. Hanji has an ancient and extensive history ranging in application from clothing to flooring and even armor! 

Like most mulberry papers, Korean Hanji paper is made from the soft, inner bark of the paper mulberry plant. The harvested bark is boiled to soften the fibers and remove impurities. Natural extracts from the Hibiscus Manihot plant helps the mulberry fibers spread evenly in the water to create crisp and uniform Hanji sheets with multi-directional grains. 

Hanji is known for its incredible strength and longevity, in addition to its unique texture and beautiful appearance. This Korean Paper Roll is made using watermark techniques to produce an elegant floral design embedded in the paper itself without printing, embossing, dyeing, or pressing. It is made from a plant-based cellulose Rayon and mulberry fiber blend for a 100% natural and non-synthetic paper. This tissue-weight Hanji paper roll is perfect for chine-colle, shoji screens, lampshades, calligraphy, and fine wrapping paper.
