Studio Suminagashi Gift Collection

$65.00

A considered collection of original suminagashi art and artist-made stationery, gathered together in one presentation box.

The Studio Collection includes three small notecards, three large notecards, three bookmarks, and three gift tags, offering a selection of Udumbara Arts paper goods in a range of sizes and uses.

Suminagashi, or “floating ink,” is the traditional Japanese art of floating ink on water and setting onto paper a fluid design formed on the water’s surface. Each piece is created individually by hand in the Hudson Valley using water drawn from the Esopus Creek. No two patterns are alike.

The notecards feature original suminagashi mounted on Fabriano Medioevalis, fine Italian mould-made stationery with softly deckled edges, and are paired with matching envelopes. The bookmarks are backed with Fabriano cardstock and finished with handmade tassels made with GOTS-certified string.

The Studio Gift Collection includes:

‣ Three small notecards with envelopes · 3⅜ × 5¼ in.
‣ Three large notecards with envelopes · 4½ × 6¾ in.
‣ Three original bookmarks with tassels · 1½ × 8 in.
‣ Three gift tags

The collection is presented in a kraft gift box nestled in shredded wildflower-seed paper, which can be scattered over soil and given a second life in the garden. An enclosed card introduces the art of suminagashi and explains how the wildflower-seed packaging can be given a second life in bloom.

Each Studio Gift Collection is individually assembled. Suminagashi patterns vary, making every collection unique.
