KURUMI-E PADDED WASHI
Kurumi-e is a very traditional Japanese craft. Using washi paper to cover padded shapes, you can produce the most amazing 3D works of art.
The padded washi kits are ideal to get you started, progressing on to the Kurumi-e kits depicting Japanese women and children. The Kurumi-e kits use chirimen washi. A very special textured paper.
Each kit contains Washi paper, padding, templates and full instructions. The kokeshi kit also contains a gold edged shikishi board for display.
We use ultra-thin Japanese padding to give a sophisticated effect. The padding can also be bought seperatly
