Elegant paper
"I bought this paper because it reminded me of palm-leaf manuscript from Thailand. It is perfect to write something very important or inspiring and frame the pages."
Red Pine Wood Loose Leaf Paper
The Red Pine Wood Loose Leaf Paper is made from ultra-thinly shaved wood, known as “Kyogi” (経木) in Japan. It offers the beauty and warmth of natural materials on every page. Each sheet shows delicate wood grain patterns, bringing a calm, organic feel to your notes, sketches, or messages.
Kyogi has a deep cultural history. Over 1,500 years ago, when Buddhism arrived in Japan, paper was still a precious luxury. Monks used thin wooden sheets to practice writing sutras. Modern Japanese artisans have refined this old technique with great care. The result is a unique loose leaf paper that blends tradition and craftsmanship.
Because it’s made of 100% wood, some inks may bleed or transfer easily. For the best experience, we recommend using a pencil or ballpoint pen. You can also enjoy sketching with colored pencils, or embrace the natural ink bleed as part of the charm.
As with all natural materials, the wooden sheets may warp slightly or change color over time, adding character and uniqueness. This product is more than just paper—it’s a piece of Japanese stationery art that brings nature’s beauty to your everyday life.

Coexistence with the Forest of Shiki Bun
In the Ina Valley, located in Nagano Prefecture in Japan, a company called Yamatowa supports coexistence with forests. Once, people were closely involved with forests and received many blessings from them. However, as lifestyles changed and forests were left untended, overgrown and dark forests increased. Untrimmed branches and leaves block sunlight, damaging the health and ecosystem of the forest.
Yamatowa believes that although it's difficult to return to the old ways of living, it's possible to bring living closer to forests again and increase the number of healthy and bright forests that are well-maintained, as in the past. They think that using Japanese wood appropriately in daily life will lead to forest conservation, and with this in mind, they launched a brand called Shiki.
To realize their vision, they use Akamatsu pine from the Ina Valley, and skilled woodworkers create products including notebooks and other wooden products.

"I love the lightness, flexibility, transparency, natural grain and surface texture. Have already used oil crayons, watercolors and looking forward to printing foil lithographs as the smooth, yet absorbent surfaces should yield good ink lifts. So many projects in mind! Thanks for a great product! Jason"

"This is a very unusual and unique item. You will need to experiment with writing or painting tools to see how this works for you but I wrinkly it very much and it gives a very good finished product. Recommended."
