Origami Booklet - Japan's traditional Culture (Incl. 24 sheets of origanmi paper) Bilingual Jap-Eng

Origami, an ancient Japanese art form known today throughout the world as ORIGAMI, has become a means of communication that transcends borders and ethnicities.

This book compiles works that truly evoke “Japan”, from seasonal events such as New Year celebrations with folded cranes, Setsubun, Hinamatsuri and Tango no Sekku, to symbols of Japan such as the kimono, Mount Fuji, sumo, cherry blossoms and samurai, along with animals known from folk tales and legends.

All works are presented on beautiful Edo-period chiyogami paper with traditional motifs.

The same printed chiyogami is also included, so you can tear it off and fold the same piece yourself.

With English translations of all the works and explanations of the patterns, as well as instructions for folding them, it is useful when introducing Japanese culture and traditions to international visitors or when seeking to communicate.

It also makes a lovely souvenir or gift.
