To your desk bring the rich colors of the kimono and the shine of lacquered wood. Ball point or gel pens covered with Japanese yuzen paper and sealed with gloss for protection from the elements of water and dirty hands. 

Japanese yuzen washi mulberry paper with its bright colors, gold streaks and woodprint kimono-inspired designs was first made in the 1700s. Common people used the paper to decorate household objects - an affordable way to bring the lush colors of the lord's kimonos into the home. Black ink. All designs are unique.
