colorful ballpoint pens

Mino Washi/Yuzen pattern

Washi paper made with water from the clear Nagara River, a bounty of lush greenery in the mountainous Gifu region, is a heartwarming culture that has been popular in Japan since the Nara period. (Registered as a UNESCO World Cultural Heritage Site)
These colorful handmade writing instruments are decorated with the ``elegant and beautiful'' Yuzen pattern, which is also known as Chiyogami paper.
Each piece of Japanese paper is hand-rolled, coated with acrylic resin to protect it from dirt and water, and finished with UV resin drying.
