folio size: 15 1/2" x 11", 39.25 cm x 28 cm

This is group of 17 folios which contains, in total, 22 samples of Japanese hand made paper from 13 different Japanese prefectures. This set is a wonderful reference for those specifically interested in Japanese artisan paper making.

Each sample is tipped in to a folio and each sample is stamped with its name, its place of origin and what appears to be an indication of the size of a full sheet.

When one sample is tipped in to the folio the size of the sample it is about 15" x 10 3/4", 38 cm x 27 cm. When two or more samples are included in one folio the size of each sample decreases.
