Paperblanks Japanese Floral Rinpa Art Journal
Celebrate the timeless beauty of Japanese art and nature with this exquisite Paperblanks Japanese Floral Journal, featuring delicate spring and summer blooms by 18th-century artist Watanabe Shikō (1683–1755).
The intricate floral artwork originates from a historic Japanese paper screen painted in the Rinpa style, one of Japan’s most celebrated schools of painting. Established in 17th-century Kyoto, Rinpa artists were known for transforming nature into breathtaking works of art across screens, fans, hanging scrolls, and kimono textiles.
The journal cover showcases a beautiful section of Shikō’s original screen, filled with a variety of seasonal flowers often associated with Hanakotoba—the traditional Japanese language of flowers.
The original artwork is held by the Ashmolean Museum of Art and Archaeology at the University of Oxford, bringing centuries of Japanese artistic heritage to this beautifully detailed journal.
Perfect for journaling, writing, reflection, sketching, or creative inspiration, this floral journal makes a thoughtful gift for artists, writers, flower lovers, gardeners, Japanese art enthusiasts, and stationery collectors.
