Yukyu-shi (Snow Bleached Paper) is made by utilizing the cold and snowy climate of Gokayama-city, which is in the north-east of Japan facing the Sea of Japan.


Locally grown Kozo is harvested, steamed to remove the bark, then thrown on the snow to bleach.
This paper is made entirely by hand without any use of machines or chemicals at all. It is a warm, natural color that is excellent for conservation use, especially the repair of old documents.

*Variation may occur between batches.

It is made from 100% Japanese Kozo, no sizing.
