Experience the elegance of traditional Japanese craftsmanship with the Taniguchi Stamp Book, designed to preserve temple and shrine stamps with both sophistication and practicality. The cover is adorned with hand-dyed yuzen paper featuring a vibrant mankai sakura motif, offering a timeless aesthetic that celebrates the beauty of Japanese art.
The book opens to accordion-style pages, comprising 24 double-leaf folds (48 usable sides) of high-quality hōsho paper. Each page is constructed with a double-layer, bag-style binding to minimise ink bleed-through, ensuring that every seal and calligraphy remains crisp and clear. A removable protective sleeve adds both elegance and durability, while a small inner pocket provides convenient storage for tickets or keepsakes.
The Stamp Book is compact enough for travel yet generously sized for detailed inscriptions. Crafted by Taniguchi Shoyudo, a Kyoto atelier renowned for nearly a century of expertise in washi paper-making, this stamp book is a refined blend of artistry, function, and cultural heritage - a meaningful keepsake for pilgrims, collectors, and admirers of Japanese tradition.
