  • Some variation in colour between lots, and between sample and product, is in the nature of the material.
Samples and delivery

As a rule we send up to ten cut samples per request. If you need more, please ask.

In Japan, cut samples normally arrive within three to four days. Delivery to Canada takes longer, and we will confirm the timing when we reply.

Samples are free. You can also borrow a sample book for ten days, and cover the shipping one way.

Paulownia, sliced thin and laid by hand, so that the grain itself draws the pattern.

Kiri has a curious property: depending on the direction of the grain, the same wood reads light or dark.

Because every sheet is real wood, colour and grain vary from lot to lot. That variation is the character of the material, not a flaw in it.
