Description

Usu Kuchi Heavy Machine Made Washi

An excellent quality machine made paper, Usu Kuchi Heavy is great for shoji screens, dyeing, suminagashi, and printmaking. Usu Kuchi Heavy is absorbent, and durable. It takes colour well and becomes remarkably cloth-like when treated with konnyaku starch. Usu Kuchi is also a great choice for drawing with graphite, soft pastel, and water-based media.

This paper is very similar to the Shoji Natural Roll. It is also available in Light (21g) and Extra Heavy (65g) formats.

Usu Kuchi differs from Kozuke in that it is made of pure kozo and is unsized. It takes colour beautifully and is receptive to most drawing and printmaking methods. Because it is unsized, it’s an excellent choice for projects that require great saturation, like dyeing.
