MOENKOPI

Moenkopi is a Japanese washi paper, made by traditional methods from mulberry (kozo) fibre. It is water-resistant and prints clear, high-resolution images while keeping the hand feel of washi. Two versions are listed. Kozo is smooth and natural white, close to a hot press art paper. Unryu has a decorative surface, made by adding long fibres to the wet mould during production.

Kozo is listed at 110gsm and Unryu at 55gsm; each version comes in that one weight only. The finish carries a special treatment. Listed methods are solvent inkjet and silkscreen, and the sheet suits inkjet printers. Suggested uses are book jackets and sleeves, craft and fine art.
