Handmade Lace Kozo Paper - FERN

Handmade Lace Kozo Paper is a beautifully intricate mulberry sheet created using the traditional Japanese-inspired Rakusui technique. Crafted frame by frame, artisans gently drop water onto freshly formed pulp to displace fibers and create delicate, open lace-like patterns within the sheet itself. The result is a paper that both feels luxurious and looks like delicate lace. It is lightweight yet surprisingly strong, with exceptional translucency that allows light to pass gracefully through the design.

The Fern pattern features an elegant botanical motif reminiscent of natural leaf forms suspended within the paper. Made from durable kozo fibers, this 45 gsm sheet offers a slightly fuller hand while maintaining flexibility and strength. There are 3 sheet sizes available. Each parent-sized sheet includes four natural deckle edges that highlight its handmade origins. With a neutral pH of 7–8, it is suitable for archival-conscious applications.

This lace kozo is especially striking when illuminated. It is a favorite for lamp shades, window panels, and backlit installations where the intricate fern pattern becomes a glowing focal point. It is equally suited for collage, mixed media, book arts, decorative overlays, and dimensional art projects. Whether used as a feature surface or layered element, Handmade Lace Mulberry Paper brings botanical elegance and artisanal craftsmanship to any creative work.
