石州和紙について
石州和紙は島根県浜田市三隅町にある４軒の工房で作られています。約1300年の歴史があり柿本人麻呂が奈良時代に石見の国の国司であった際に伝えられたといわれています。
石州和紙は楮・三椏・雁皮が原料となり、練りとなるトロロアオイを混ぜて人間の手のみで漉かれています。日本の和紙の中でも強靭で光沢があります。現在ではかわひら、石州和紙久保田、西田和紙工房、西田製紙所の４軒のみが紙漉き職人として存在しています。2009年にユネスコ無形文化遺産に登録され、様々な絵画の修復紙としても世界各国にて使用されています。

About Sekishu Washi
Sekishu Washi (traditional Japanese handmade paper) has been produced in Misumi-Town, Hamada-City, Shimane-Prefecture, Japan, for over about 1300 years. Sekishu Washi is made using the bark fibers of kozo, mitsumata, and gampi. Neri, a vegetable starch derived from the roots of the tororo-aoi plant, is also added. Sekishu Washi is very special, fine, strong, and glossy paper that is exclusively made by hand. There are only four workplaces that have been continued Sekishu Washi production until now.
Furthermore in 2009, UNESCO agreed to safeguard Sekishu-banshi as an Intangible Cultural Heritage, and included it in their Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity. Sekishu Washi has been used as restoration papers for masterpiece paintings around the world for years.
Now, I use the "Sekishu Washi for Inkjet print" which was made of collaboration with the workshop "Sekishu Washi Kubota".
