Aiko's Art Materials

This store has closed.

Aiko's brought Japanese papers to the US in 1955, a few decades before the American public at large began to appreciate their beauty. Today, while larger shops have caught on, Aiko's simply offer much more selection and oh yeah much better prices. Go there to gawk at hundreds of incredibly intricate, impossibly colorful Japanese papers including metallics, patterns, solids and even lace paper. Go there also for brushes, inks and watercolors--everything needed to create beautiful things with paper.
