Greetings from a US paper conservatory! So there's lots of places around the world that make long lasting (archival) paper! The thing with the paper we use everyday is it's made from waaaaaay thicker trees. This means it's really dense and it needs to be processed with more chemicals. This in turn means the paper will yellow with time. The paper this guy makes is probably made with mulberry (also known as kozo) harvested after it's first year when it's still softer and easier to process. I greatly encourage people to find places that sell fine paper as it's fantastic for art creation. Also paper arts are lit. When I saw him put the kozo in the beater, my soul left my body then it was explained more and it came back.

I saw a blog post several years ago where a woman had a custom built beater designed specifically to process mulberry fibers. It was fascinating. Instead of the plate with spikes and indentations, it had two rows of staggered dull blades shaped like scythes. These would separate the fibers without cutting them. She mentioned it was a very slow process but was something she wanted to develop.

Actually trees used for paper making have gotten much much smaller. It’s been a long time since pulp logs needed to be cut to size to fit in a pulp mill unlike the 1930’s…

tbh $22 per sheet that large for mulberry paper is still a good deal. i used to use it for printmaking and it's my favorite type of paper to use.

Paper is probably one of the most important inventions in human history. As we slowly become more and more digital, its understandable why the old methods are going away, but we can't let the knowledge of it disappear. Please document these things well enough while we can so if in the future someone wants to recreate something from the past there is enough information on knowing how to do so. It makes me sad to know that so much old knowledge just fades away to be forgotten. (like roman concrete among others)

I think this craft is set to continue at some small scale with no end in sight... although by that I mean handmade mulberry paper generally, not necessarily korean. there certainly is potential for crafts to die out and to later beextremely difficultto recreate when there's noone left to teach how to do it. papermaking is not very complex though. historic examples include (to a degree but often exaggerated) damascus steel, arguably cremonese violin making (stradivari and such), and the blaschka glass sculptures. you could also go back in time much further and include megalithic construction techniques.

Paper originated from China. It’s best to learn from the country of invention than from a copycat nation. Japan, Korea and Vietnam are three Sinospheric nations. Paper, gunpowder, compass and printing (woodblock and movable type) are Four Great Chinese Inventions. Paper, paper folding art, paper money, toilet paper, paper utensils are all Chinese inventions, not “Japanese” or “Korean”. Japan and Korea need to start giving credits to the source of their copying instead of such kind of blatant cultural plagiarism. It’s either paper or Chinese paper, not “Japanese paper”, not “Korean paper”. Paper was invented by the Chinese inventor Cai Lun during the Chinese Han Dynasty, the first golden age of Chinese history. So paper is Chinese, not “Japanese” or “Korean”.

Video came out a minute ago, wdym?

Art conservators around the world use Kanji to repair rips and tears in the canvas and paper of artworks. It can be applied where one does not want linen thread to show. It is almost invisible, and can have paint re-touching applied over it.

Is the demand down primarily due to cost? If so, why not invest into ways to automate the process more? Quality may initial drop but long term the paper will thrive and potentially become even better quality. Maybe replace more commonly used types of paper.

This raises my interest in creating art that lasts through using this wondrous paper

This job just looks fun

To increase demand they need to cut it down to reams of 8x11 sheets. Then yuppies could buy it for their printing and smuggly tell people about it

Incredible.

It is unfortunate they do not export. Hanji and Kozzo are extremely difficult to get. I would gladky pay 22 usd for a sheet of conservations Hanji

Good tradition

there's a huge market for it in genealogy, keeping records of your own family roots is very hard, even grave stones writing can't survive several dozen years if not cut very deeply (they do these days only light engraving on super polished stone with laser which can't survive a dusty winds). Archives going digital, but server disks to be reliable must be replaced every 4 years by industy standard, at the same time many paper documents which survived 50 or more years after scanning destroyed to free up storage, the ones without museum value, usually which directly associated to personal data and genealogy. People in genealogy today trying to race with time to save something what was left, personal records because of privacy laws if never requested by relatives or researchers are destroyed every year in archives worldwide by amount of several tonnes of paper. In ancient arabian culture there was a very clever way to keep records of family in thier long names, which not only contain names of several roots by men line, but also geolocation, a city or place, higher classes additional data. The name there was like passport. But this tradition long time gone.

Surely it could benefit from some sort of cultural conservation project.

You have a rich ancient tradition of craftsmanship at hand, take it up as a badge of pride. obviously not for disposable notepads, but for ceremonial and official documents exchanged with other nations, why would you not?

After doing some research, hanji is said to be more durable and tougher than the Chinese / Japanese counterparts. Trees from China / warmer climate has weaker fibers, while trees on Japan are grown on calcareous ground, which is reportedly less tough and doesn’t last as long. I don’t think it is waterproof, since if it is, it’ll have hard time soaking up inks, and I have spilled water on hanji before. But it can take on some water and be still okay. If you get it dirty with writings or ink, you can wash it with water and dry it to use it again. Also it can pass air easily, ventilating the area and adjusting the humidity. Which is why it has traditionally been used for covers of doors / windows etc. And since it’s tough, there are relics over a thousand years ago that are made from hanji. The oldest paper to be printed by wooden press in the world from the 8th century is one of them. They made bowls, plates and even armors from them, the containers for gunpowder, too. It’s also less likely to be discolored, due to its neutral acidity. Also it’s said to be very good for origami. A must-have for hobbyists. But you need some glue cause it doesn’t like to be kept bent. There might be some inaccuracies but that’s all I found out.

I have a friend, Prof. Haji Noor Din Mi Guang Jiang, who is a master of both Chinese and Arabic calligraphy. He uses traditional carbon ink on mulberry paper. When he sells a piece, he tells the buyer that the paper will last 1,000 years at least; and the ink will still be clear in that time, unless the piece is left in the sun, where it might fade. However, he warns them that the silk borders on the calligraphy scrolls will only last about 350-400 years, and will eventually have to be replaced.
