Bookcloth
|
We stock a range of bookcloth from the standard Buckrams to a large range of beautiful, highest quality Japanese cloths. |
Japanese Bookcloths
Our Japanese cloths are all lined with a fine tissue to prevent adhesive from penetrating the front of the cloth. All are sourced directly from Japan.
