About this Item
A Japanese Mulberry Paper Stencil (30 x 41 cm sheet size), being a dramatic asymmetrical yet balanced design of differing size and shaped motifs, creating a sense of rhythmic movement. The stencils are made of two or more layers of handmade Mulberry paper laminated together, which is hardened and waterproofed with persimmon juice. A wonderfully artistic stencil in excellent condition. BIBLIOGRAPHY: (1) Japanese Stencil Designs, One Hundred Outstanding Examples Collected And Introduced By Andrew W. Tuer.
