Echizen washi is favored by international sculptors

Richard Serra, an American sculptor internationally renowned for his work with huge metal plates. He has used echizen washi for his printing works.
We visited his studio in Los Angeles, and our interaction have been deepening between users and makers of washi.
The contemporary art scene always seek high quality, thick, strong and dense washi. Papermakers in Echizen are constantly researching and developing and are still growing to respond flexibly to all requests from artists.(written by Sugihara Washi paper, Inc.)
