The designs range from bold and abstract geometric patterns to more typical seasonal motifs. The use of colours and patterns are very vibrant and suggest a maker who was not bound by the tradition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis appears to be a one-off collection, with no labels on the case or inside to indicate an edition or maker. The back of each mount bears a stamp which reads \u003cem\u003eTsuji zo-sho\u003c\/em\u003e, i.e. ‘From the collection of Tsuji’. We have not been able to identify who this might have been, since Tsuji is a fairly common name in Japan. Though the album is undated, the patterns and colours indicate an Showa period maker, around the 1930s or 40s. We have handled a smaller, similar album of \u003cem\u003ekatazome\u003c\/em\u003e papers from around this time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n","brand":"Maggs Bros.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48597650964637,"sku":"263468","price":750.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0669\/0045\/9677\/files\/263468_01.jpg?v=1783334638","url":"https:\/\/store.maggs.com\/products\/katazome-mon-shi-shu-collection-stencil-dyed-patterned-papers-1tteuc9x","provider":"Maggs Bros.","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
