All of the paper I use has deckled edges. **Q: How smooth is the paper? Could it be used for relief printing?** A: This paper is very smooth. I've not done relief printing myself, but the paper I've received multiple times has no texture-it is completely smooth like hot press paper. It is thin-translucent-but fairly sturdy. Hope that helps! **Q: Can this paper be used to repair old brittle book pages?** A: You'll need an extremely thin mulberry paper. Look for a Japanese hand made brand. Not sure if Amazon sells it- **Q: Does this paper hold when wet (such as dipped in liquid dye) or does it get mushy and falls apart when wet?** A: I have used this paper for watercolor. It was on a very sturdy support though and I had to be very careful. I think you could dip it but you would have to be so very careful! It would be boarder line. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars Great for suminagashi *by D***. on Reviewed in the United States on May 7, 2017* I have not painted directly on this paper, only used it for suminagashi. It performed very well. It absorbed the ink very quickly (no sizing), was easy to manipulate when wet, and seemed quite strong when wet (no tears or disintegration like hosho paper!). It is not overly fibrous, so anyone needing smooth paper can use this. It is slightly cream colored and has two deckle edges. Mine came with very small bends in corners of the roll, but for my purpose that wasn't an issue. I love this paper. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars Great quality *by A***R on Reviewed in the United States on July 3, 2021* I’ve sourced mulberry paper from professional art stores for the last few years at much higher prices than this but this still sustains the same great quality. It’s the perfect sheerness, light and the color is a bright white. Looking forward to print making with this! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.0 out of 5 stars Count your pages and do you see lines before your eyes? *by F***P on Reviewed in the United States on October 2, 2014* I was robbed by 1 page and I did not expect to find lines (not fibers) running through the paper. Be sure to count all of your pages.If you do not mind light lines similar to notebook lines running through the page then this is a nice product. You cant beat the sheet size and quality compared to others who charge way more. The texture is lovely and fibrous delicious. However I thought it was a bit transparent for journal pages. My concern is ink/paints will bleed through. Have not tested this theory yet. I suppose I should go file a complaint to the peeps who sell this as I would like to have the missing sheet. Just thought it wouldn't be worth the postage. Maybe if I order more they can include it then. Would be a way for them to save money right? Every thirty orders they have a free set to send. Just saying. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vn/products/3071675-thin-mulberry-paper-1-for-chinese-painting-or-sumi-e](https://www.desertcart.vn/products/3071675-thin-mulberry-paper-1-for-chinese-painting-or-sumi-e) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vietnam* *Store origin: VN* *Last updated: 2026-05-20*
