  • What is a Japanese paper book cover?<\/strong> <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    Japanese paper was once used in every scene of life in Japan. Japanese paper has been used as an indispensable item in daily life as an envelope, wall material, and shoji screen.
    Unfortunately, in modern times, there are very few opportunities to come into contact with Japanese paper. Under such circumstances, from two years ago, Ginza Tsutaya Bookstore wanted to collaborate with a long-established Japanese paper maker and increase opportunities to enjoy incorporating Japanese paper into modern life, and together with Maruwa Co., Ltd. in the planning of Ginza Tsutaya Bookstore. We have developed "Washi book cover". <\/p>\n<\/p>\n

    The most distinctive feature of the Japanese paper book cover is the gentle color that makes use of Maruwa's original Japanese paper dyeing technology. The delicate shades carefully dyed by the craftsmen create a higher-grade atmosphere. In addition, each book cover has a different color depending on the cutting position, and all are unique. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n

    In addition, using Maruwa's original superhydrophobic paper, it repels water while retaining the original texture of Japanese paper, achieving strong durability. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
