Kitakata Japanese Washi Paper
Kitakata Washi paper is traditionally crafted in Japan, primarily using Gampi fibres known for natural lustre and smoothness, meticulously formed into sheets. This technique creates thin, durable, slightly translucent paper with a soft, smooth surface. Its inherent subtle sheen and natural off white tones are characteristic of carefully prepared Gampi fibres.
Inspired by traditional Washi artistry, this seamless 4K PBR texture set captures the subtle fibrous structure and smooth surface of Kitakata paper using photogrammetry. Designed for fine art reproductions, digital conservation visualisations, and applications needing delicate translucency like virtual lampshades, it provides artists an authentic Japanese paper texture conveying refinement and cultural heritage.
Optimized for Metallic/Roughness workflows. (Note: For Specular/Glossiness workflow, simply invert the Roughness map inside your render engine).
These dimensions serve as guidance, ensuring realism and consistency. All assets are encouraged to be used flexibly and can be scaled accordingly to suit different scales or art-directed scenarios.
