Overview

  • This workshop offers a hands-on experience of traditional Japanese hand-crafted washi papermaking.

    Located just a 5-minute walk from Hakone-Yumoto Station, Washi Studio “Washinoiori” is a place where you can casually experience the techniques of Echizen washi, a craft with over 1,000 years of history. With the support of an instructor, you will create your own original washi artwork.

    Beginners are welcome, and no prior experience is required.

    Enjoy a warm and friendly atmosphere as you craft your piece, and be moved by the beauty of your finished washi. Take home your one-of-a-kind creation as a special souvenir from Japan.
