This book surveys the history and technique of chiyogami, a form of traditional Japanese paper with repeated graphic patterns, originally printed by woodblock but now in silkscreen. Chiyogami was developed during the Edo Period for making decorative objects. The book is printed letterpress on Arches paper and quarter-bound in goatskin. It includes woodcuts, watercolor illustrations, and twenty-four foldout sheets from the author’s collection.
