Founded in 1925, we are a Kyoto-based Washi product processing manufacturer that started with the production of shikishi (art paper). We handle the planning, manufacturing, and sales of our own products, including Goshuin-cho (temple stamp books, with a production of 400,000 books annually, making us one of the largest in Japan), folding fans, Japanese-style bound books, pasted boxes, shikishi, folding screens, hanging scrolls, and small Japanese goods. We also support OEM orders starting from small lots. Today, we manufacture many products aimed at "Oshi-katsu" (fan activities) and the inbound tourism market.
