Japanease Yuzen Paper Cranes

Japanese Chiyogami / Yuzen Paper

Midnight Cranes

With a flock of regal mignight cranes that represent long life this traditional paper is hand silkscreened onto a regal black background of high content Kozo base, providing durability and flexibility. The colors are applied with pigmented ink which resists fading making this an ideal paper for any art or craft application. The uses for this paper are endless. Originally used for paper dolls and box decorations, Yuzen Paper has now found its way into a variety of arts and crafts. This paper can also be used for a layered look to add that extra touch to your Quilled art cards or framed work. This paper measures 8.5x11 but can be cut and also used for origami. This paper is not acid free.

Note: this paper is not recommended for Quilling paper strips and should not be cut and used for the traditional paper shapes it will not act the same as regular Quilling paper will. It is recommended in the enhancement of your Quilling art and Card craft projects. Also note that not all international papers are acid free. If your art or paper craft project requires that you have acid free paper. Check the paper specifications in advance of using the paper to see if it will need to be sprayed with an acid neutralization spray before using the paper. The spray I recommend to keep your beautiful art looking beautiful and acid free is the Krylon brand spray called Make It Acid-Free.
