Obonai Feather is a thin, crisp, machine-made paper which folds easily. The "feather" in its name refers to the fibers laid on top of the pulp base of the paper which resemble feathers embedded within the paper itself; they are easily seen because of the paper's translucence. Although very strong, this paper may be dampened and then dried to hold a delicate curve if desired. While the color is equally vibrant on both sides, Obonai Feather has one side which is slightly smoother than the other. Each package of Obonai Feather has 48 sheets which are 5" square. Due to the intense dye of the paper, there are 8 extremely rich colors: kingin orange, kingin green, pink, red, sand, parchment, dark green, and indigo. Both of the kingin obonai feather papers have flecks of gold and silver embedded within the paper. Each package has 6 sheets of each color.
