Japanese conservation techniques part 2 - A Journey into the Traditional Japanese Craft of Washi Paper Making

In the second instalment of our Japanese conservation series, Frame London’s own Leina Taylor travels to the serene northern region of Japan, exploring the materials that shape our daily work at the forefront of conservation framing. Nestled at the foot of Mount Gassan lies a small papermaking studio, home to the craft of making Gassan washi—a traditional Japanese paper known for its strength, flexibility, and durability.
