Great paper, requires care

The paper is incredibly thin and delicate, just as described. You need a steady hand, but the result is stunning. One star off only because it tears easily if you are not careful during mounting.

Authentic Jingxian quality

You can tell this is genuine Yanpi paper from Jingxian. The absorption rate is balanced perfectly for semi-processed needs. My small script looks crisp and elegant on this surface.

Good but challenging for beginners

This is high-quality paper, but perhaps too thin for a complete beginner like me. I struggled a bit with ink control, but I can see how amazing it would be in skilled hands. Will buy again when I improve.

Perfect for manuscript submission

I used this for a formal calligraphy submission and the judges loved the texture. The cicada-wing ribs give it a traditional feel that modern machine-made papers lack.

Exceptional quality for copying classics

The translucency of this paper is perfect for tracing ancient manuscripts. The ribbed texture adds a wonderful touch to the brush strokes without causing ink bleed. Highly recommended for serious practitioners.

Beautiful flower-tied pattern

I was amazed by the subtle flower-tied patterns visible when held up to light. It makes my practice sheets look like finished art pieces. The semi-processed surface holds ink well for small regular script.

5 FAQ

Q: Does the flower-tied pattern appear on both sides of the paper?

A: The flower-tied pattern is embedded within the pulp during the handmade process, so it is visible from both sides, though it appears most distinct when backlit due to the paper's translucency.

Q: Can I use this paper for mounting directly without backing?

A: Due to its ultra-thin and translucent nature, we recommend mounting this paper onto a stiffer backing or using it within an album for best results. It is too delicate to hang freely without support.

Q: Is this paper suitable for heavy ink usage or wet brush techniques?

A: This is a semi-processed (Shu Xuan) paper designed primarily for small regular script and copying. While it handles moderate ink well, it is ultra-thin and may not be ideal for very heavy, wet washes compared to raw Xuan paper.

Q: What does the 'Four-Foot' size dimension refer to exactly?

A: The 'Four-Foot' specification typically refers to a strip measuring approximately 138 cm in length and 34 cm in width, which is a standard size for traditional Chinese calligraphy strips.

Q: How should I store this paper to prevent damage?

A: Store the paper flat in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Because it is handmade and organic, avoid humid environments to prevent mold, and keep it in its original packaging or a protective folder.
