Bring your personalized note to the next level with these traditional, colorful Japanese prints.

These high-quality note cards feature six traditional Asian prints. Chiyogami Note Cards are an excellent value—a fraction of the price of other fine art print cards.

This elegant note card pack includes:
  • 6 different chiyogami patterns—2 cards of each
  • 12 folded blank note cards—6 x 4 inches (152 x 102 mm)
  • 12 envelopes—6 1/4 x 4 1/4 inches (160 x 108 mm)

Chiyogami patterns are known for saturated colors and graphic patterns. They represent Japanese traditional style and are often inspired by Kimono fabric. Originally printed by woodblock, Japanese artists began to silkscreen Chiyogami designs by hand in the twentieth century, and continue to do so today.
