Green Turtle Origami Ornament ~ Paper Wedding Anniversary Gift

What you are buying is a custom handmade keepsake. The perfect gift for paper first wedding anniversaries!

 Created using handmade mulberry Chiyogami paper. Chiyogami Japanese papers are inspired by patterns on kimono fabrics dating from the Edo period and are hand silkscreened using intense colours with gold overlay. Chiyogami paper is handmade by a small amount of paper making families throughout Japan. It is easy to admire Chiyogami for its beauty alone but what is even more impressive is understanding the time and craftsmanship that goes into making just a single sheet. To create a single sheet of Chiyogami, each base sheet of Mulberry paper is silkscreened with as many colours as there are in that particular pattern - in most case, four or five colours.

 The Turtle was chosen for this piece as it represents wisdom, strength and longevity.
