Awagami Editioning Kitakata Select

Available items

Description

Everything you love about Kitakata. Twice the weight.

Kitakata Select takes everything artists love about the original Kitakata and doubles down - literally. This version weighs in at 96gsm, with a slightly darker shade and offering added substance while preserving the natural tone, silky surface, and subtle gloss of its lighter sibling. It’s a favorite for printers who want more durability without losing delicacy.

Made with 90% gampi and featuring four natural deckles, it’s equally at home under a brayer, brush, or bone folder. Printmakers appreciate the added stability, while photographers and mixed-media artists find new ways to stretch its potential. Think of it as Kitakata in bold - still elegant, just a bit more assertive.
