Chiyogami

Specialties

We make handmade jewellery inspired by Japanese chiyogami.

We love the beauty of chiyogami and wish to share our passion for this beautiful paper with as many people as possible. It is this passion that motivated us to embark on Chiyogami and incorporate these beautiful papers at the heart of our product offering.

We hope that you too will enjoy a small piece of Japan’s rich culture that can be found in our chiyogami-​inspired products. As our love for chiyogami continues and as we uncover more beautiful patterns, we look forward to sharing more inspiring products with you.

History

Established in 2012.

Founded in 2012 by Mayu (Mayumi) and Drew (Andrew) Smith.

Mayu and Drew are married and live in North Sydney. Their relationship formed and developed while Drew was based in Tokyo, Japan working for a leading electronics manufacturer. Together they share a deep love and respect for Japanese history and culture — Chiyogami is an avenue for them both to share a small part of this passion with the people of Australia.
