Kaishi Paper featuring the famous National Treasure Choju Jinbutsu Giga (Scrolls of Frolicking Animals and Humans) from Kozanji Temple. These traditional Japanese pocket papers depict adorable animals in light gray, creating a watermark-like effect. Suitable for tea ceremonies or everyday dining.

Beyond tea ceremony use, it serves many practical purposes: as a handkerchief or tissue substitute, memo paper, makeshift plate during meals, coaster, chopstick rest, or envelope for small gifts.
