FAQs

Produced primarily during the Meiji era by publishers such as T. Hasegawa, these calendars were crafted using crinkled mulberry paper known as chirimen-bon and feature traditional woodblock illustrations alongside Western calendar dates.

They were made using handmade mulberry paper that underwent a specialised mechanical pressing process to achieve a textured, cloth-like crepe surface prior to woodblock printing and hand stitching.

Authentic examples typically feature the publisher mark of T. Hasegawa Tokyo, distinct crinkled paper texture, traditional Japanese stab-binding, and subtle woodblock printing from the late 19th or early 20th century.

Displaying the item opened flat inside a shallow glass shadow box frame or resting it on a bookshelf standard allows its texture and artwork to serve as an intriguing focal point in a study.

Keep the item in a climate-controlled environment away from direct sunlight, high humidity, and excessive handling, using acid-free mounting materials if framing for display.
