Review: High quality paper, good patterns and decent price! - I've been a semi-serious buyer of Origami paper for many years. I mostly now use it for making Origami lights such as in the picture I've added. The kind of paper I need is all Yuzen/Chiyogami/Washi type which is more expensive, effectively ranging between $0.50 - $2.00 per sheet when purchased in 40-80 sheet stacks. These kinds of paper get the most beautiful printed patterns on a slightly thicker and robust paper but is still easy to fold. Also means it doesn't tear easy or get damaged. The paper balloons I fold may sometimes get poked or crunched by the purchaser of my lights so that's important. So even if say, someone were to sit on them, they can be pushed back to their original shape with little to no damage. Quite resilient. The other point is the quality of the ink used. With cheap paper, the colors may shine differently once being lit from within. Cheaper dyes will often be muted in color. But with this paper the dye colors are consistent and maybe even more saturated when lit (which is a good thing). Additionally, these papers are often with a gold or silver tracing on the patterns. Many vendors have this but the tracing will be off and it shows much more when lit. The paper from this seller doesn't have that issue and is traced accurately. So the look, feel, and color rendition is wonderful. Some people may get upset that every other paper is just a solid color, which I can understand. But traditionally Origami paper has always been packaged and sold this way for at least the 40 years I've been using it. I tell people to use these solid colors for practice then fold the nicer paper afterwards. 5 stars across the board. That's coming from someone who's very picky about the Origami paper they use! Will definitely buy again. Note: I'm not sure how often the patterns are cycled for bundling. I got 2 packs today and most were the same between both packs. I don't mind this and often prefer it sometimes so I get additional copies of favorite patterns. But if there's a way to ensure getting a different bundle with different patterns I'd like to know. Maybe just have to wait until stock recycles? Anyway, I highly recommend this paper and vendor! If anyone wants to learn how to make these lights feel free to comment.
Review: Mino Washi - Beautiful Mino washi. Having lived in Tokyo for years, I knew I would be happy with this set. Next year I have a trip planned to visit Mino, Japan, which is a World Heritage Site for paper making. Just so you know, every other paper in this set is the beautiful, colorful wash, the other papers are plain colored.

## Features

- Origami is originally from China. Since ancient times, it has been loved as an art form. In recent years, origami has been used in a variety of ways, for writing messages and making crafts for instance. Also, when a tragedy such as an earthquake or tsunami occurs, “Senba-Zuru” (a thousand paper origami cranes strung together) is made by people from unaffected areas who are praying for the victims to recover. Origami is used to give shape to their thoughts.
- With a simple piece of origami paper, you can make various kinds of origami figures such as animals, vehicles, and characters from comic books or animations. For example, you can make a dog, lion, crow, panda, car, ship, airplane, ninja, samurai, or dragon. Easy figures are used as an educational toy or learning aid to help use their brains while using their fingers. Difficult figures are widely admired as art in exhibitions or competitions.
- Size: 100 x 100mm (3.93 x 3.93 in), Material: Minowashi (Japanese Paper)
- This traditional Japanese paper is called "Mino Washi" made in Gifu prefecture, Japan. Mino Washi was designated an Intangible Cultural Heritage by UNESCO in 2014, and it has been very popular not only in Japan but also overseas.
- The quality of general paper will be rapidly deteriorated after about 100 years since the paper is made because some chemicals are used to make paper appear whiter. However, it is said that Mino Washi made by skilled craftsman will not be deteriorated even after 1,000 years because Mino Washi is made from natural plants.
