Handmade papermaker Satoshi Hasegawa recently relocated to Yamagata prefecture where he will continue to make his beautiful kozo papers. We've decided to re-name his new papers "Usu-gami" to replace the Hon-Mino paper series.
*Note: Many use the name "kizuki" to refer to a couple of specific papers: Usu-gami and Usu-gami Thin. However, in Japan, "kizuki" is a general term for any 100 % kozo paper.
