Awagami paper is crafted using renewable plant fibres such as Kozo ( mulberry scrub), bamboo, h**p, and other traditional washi materials. These fast growing plants can be harvested much quicker than trees, making them a more sustainable choice for papermaking. Many Awagami papers also incorporate recycled fibres, and the paper making process emphasizes careful use of natural resources, including water recycling practices. The result is a beautiful, archival-quality paper that reflects both centuries of craftsmanship and a commitment to sustainability. Choosing thoughtfully made materials is one small way to support a more sustainable creative practice

The next Awagami paper we are showcasing is Kitakata. Made from Gampi fiber. Which is a fiber made from the inner bark of wild gampi shrubs. Gampi paper is highly prized for its strength and natural glossy sheen. It has a warm tone and very soft surface. Weighing just 36gsm, it’s very lightweight. Perfect for a range of printmaking techniques such as Chine-colle and lithography.
