Chinese Calligraphy Chiyogami Pen

[Penl8the]

I really like the gold Chinese calligraphy with royal purple background on this Chiyogami paper. I am not sure how this paper was made. It has a shiny silky texture. As usual cast in PR. Wet sanded to 1000 grit. Polished twice with HUT.

Thanks for looking. Comments are welcome.

That is really cool. I assume you wrap the paper around the tube. How do you get it so it has no lines?

That's pretty awesome.

I am guessing you meant "no seam". There is a very small overlap of 1 mm (1/32"). I picked a section of the paper where on each of the seam has no pattern (in this case Chinese characters). Hence no patter to match.

Found out the hard way when wallpapering was popular.
