Wall-mountable clock made from Echizen washi paper (2 colors)
Product description
This wall clock is crafted from Echizen washi paper, carefully handcrafted by artisans. It can be used vertically or horizontally, and can also be hung on the wall without the stand. The stand is made of thick acacia wood, enhancing its décor while providing a sturdy, stable base. The stand can also be used as a photo stand or postcard holder. The size is the same as the F161369 Echizen washi perpetual calendar from the same series, creating a unified, high-quality space when used together. The washi paper features motifs from shesay's popular items. Shesay's long-loved items and Echizen washi paper continue to be a tradition today. We created this with the hope that shesay's items will grow into items that will be loved for a long time and continue to be loved forever.
Material information
Washi paper has been a familiar part of Japanese life since ancient times. It was once used for calligraphy, shoji screens, and sliding doors, making it a familiar sight, but as times have changed, opportunities to see it have become less common. However, Echizen City, Fukui Prefecture, has continued to preserve its 1,500-year-old tradition of hand-made washi paper using the same raw materials and tools as back then. Hand-made washi paper is made from plants unique to Japan, such as mitsumata, kozo, and gampi, and because each sheet is made by hand, no two are alike.
Precautions
・Because each item is handmade, the pattern and color may vary from piece to piece. Color unevenness and slight dents may occur, but please understand that this is a characteristic of handmade items. Also, slight variations in color and texture may occur depending on the photography and display conditions. ・Because the paper is dyed after it is made, the unevenness of the pattern creates natural shading.
