The "Damask Series" has a beautiful, lustrous texture
The tasteful fabric expressed by the satin weaving is called donsu, and is characterized by its glossy smoothness. Donsu was introduced from China during the Kamakura period, and some of them are known as "famous fabrics." It is a fabric that is sometimes used for obi, mountings, tea ceremony utensils, and shifuku. This is a series of crafts made from fabric that makes the most of the characteristics of donsu.
It has a luxurious feel and can be used in formal settings.
Size: 18 x 12 cm (large size)

(single side: 22 pages, double side: 44 pages). Can be used on both sides.
What is a "Goshuin"?
This is a seal given as proof when you visit a shrine or temple. The name of the shrine or temple, the name of the principal image, and the date of the visit are written in ink.
"Goshuin" vary depending on the shrine or temple. You can collect them as a record of your visit or as a memento of your trip, and they will become fond memories.
・The cover of the "Stamp Book" is made of Japanese paper.
Washi paper is strong and has excellent preservation properties. In addition, the gold leaf used in some patterns gives it a luxurious feel.
・"Yuzen Washi" dyed by artisans
It is a beautiful, colorful pattern that cannot be expressed by printing. A stencil is required for each color to dye the pattern. Several stencils are precisely overprinted. Each piece is dyed by a craftsman.
・This notebook folds like an accordion.
The paper is double-layered to prevent ink bleeding through to the other side.

Beautiful beautiful book! Can’t wait to use it on our anticipated visit to Japan & the temples.
This storage bag is just the perfect size for my Goshuin stamp book (see my review). It will be the perfect companion when I travel to Japan later in the year. The fabric is so soft and luxurious and I love the little wooden beads at the ends of the cord. Alison communicated with me in a timely manner and answered all my silly questions. I definitely recommend this shop. Thanks Alison
