The Mottainai Memo is inspired by this concept, and with that in mind, a collection of discontinued but beautifully produced paper had then been curated by Takeo Paper Products. Each memo block contains three types of fine paper, and is being produced in limited quantities due to their availability on the market. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Iwahada paper was released in 1991. It was inspired by the natural beauty of the rock surfaces visible at the bottom of a river. The collection includes three variations: Sometsuke, a soft indigo shade inspired by traditional dyed porcelain; Hakuji, a pure white reminiscent of white porcelain; and Bizen, a warm, earthy tone named after Bizen ware pottery.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e150 sheets (50 sheets x 3 types)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDimensions: 3.5 x 3.5 x 0.95 in (90 x 90 x 24 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaterials: Iwahada Paper (\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eSometsuke, \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eHakuji, \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eBizen)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMore from \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/currenthomeny.mom\/collections\/vendors?q=Takeo%20Paper%20Products\"\u003eTakeo Paper Products\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAbout Takeo Paper Products:\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTakeo Paper Products is a Tokyo-based paper trading company with over 120 years of history in paper making and exploration.
