Shipping to these countries is only possible through the express mail service EMS.

Daisy, thank you for your feedback. As you advised, I changed the order packaging for a sturdy cardboard tube. I will ask for "fragile" stickers as well. I hadn't received complains from damaged packaging before you, but you may be the 1 out of 10 cases that has reported the problem. Again, thank you.

5 out of 5 starsI would have rated the shipping higher but the box was pretty crushed and the paper has some pretty noticeable creases . The paper is very nice and im hoping I can get the creases out so I can use it for what I intended. I think in the future I would recommend better packaging to prevent damage to the paper. I do realize that the paper made a long journey from Japan. Maybe upping the shipping cost alittle more to cover a tube type shipping. Other than that…. Paper was wrapped and nicely packaged just didnt make the long journey with a crushed and bent box. I would buy more paper if the box was more sturdy. Also marking the box fragile might have helped.

Oguni Washi is a workshop in the snowy prefecture of Niigata. It produces handmade Japanese paper with imported mulberry and locally grown kozo. Its specialty is snow-bleached (yukizarashi) washi for which kozo fibers are spread atop of snow to bleach under the sun. It results in a soft white washi.
