Window shoji with custom kumiko patterns built out of Beech with Port Orford Cedar Kumiko and two paper layers to help diffuse the early morning sunlight. I don't think the pictures do them justice, they are stunning in person.

Two bi-part shoji.

Close-up of the trim detail on the cut kumiko ends.

Pictured are two of the four bi-pass shoji built in this pattern.

Black satin shoji with Kinwashi Warlon paper and ebony pulls.

A bit of a close-up.

Detail of ebony pull and a sleek finish.

Mann

Cherry shoji with 2.0 mm Amber Warlon acrylic and ebony pulls. We forgot to get a picture until they were in their cardboard packaging.. hence the interesting camera shot angle. New cherry is pretty light and will darken with age. There's an example on this page.

Kumiko joinery detail.

Inlaid ebony door pull detail.

Two shoji panels to provide privacy for an office space. Beech frames with Port Orford Cedar kumiko with Ed's coffee cup for scale.

Graves

Shoji in Beech with beech lower panels and Warlon Kinwashi paper, pictured are two of the four in the order. We didn't have enough room to spread them out.

The ranma, or transoms, this image is not to the same scale so they look small indeed. The shoji and transoms are the completion of this idea. The transoms are the first design on that page.

Close-up of the transom kumiko, all of the free ends have a tidy trim. The kumiko are also thicker than usual.

Mochihashi

Cherry window shoji with White Warlon Paper. There's some pretty figure in the cherry visible in the top and bottom rails.



Close-up to see the figure in the cherry better.


Cherry darkens with age and this picture shows the contrast between the newly made shoji and a stile that is at least 6 months old.
