Let's go on a pilgrimage for goshuin! The world heritage site, Mount Fuji, is featured along with a five-story pagoda. This spot is renowned as the only place in Japan where you can view both Mount Fuji and the pagoda simultaneously. It gained immense popularity after being featured on the cover of the Michelin travel guide, attracting many foreign tourists. It has also been selected as one of the 21 places that photographers must capture before they die. The cover has a color-printed matte film coating, providing a gentle touch.
If you have the chance, please try the "goshuincho that prevents ink from bleeding through to the back."
product for goshuincho: Traditionally, washi paper has excellent ink absorption, making it suitable for goshuin. However, its high absorption sometimes causes the back to get stained, which can be disappointing after receiving a precious goshuin. SOWA LABO has solved this issue by developing a special processing technique that prevents ink from bleeding through the back of the washi. The appearance remains the same, and the writing experience does not change, allowing for safe use on both sides. However, since the washi is laminated, it may feel a bit stiff. Additionally, due to the lamination, it cannot be used for secondary processing like mounting or framing after the pilgrimage.
