Haibara was the first to sell wild goose paper in Edo.
When you put one brush and ink, the letters are beautifully worn with a soft brush ... and the popularity has spread not only to writers, ink customers, but also to wifes and children.
There were also requests from the Imperial Family, successive ministers, writers, and painters.
During the flowering period of the Meiji civilization, Haibara exported Japanese paper for the first time in Japan and imported Western paper.
He also exhibited at the Vienna World Exposition in 1873 and the Paris World Exposition in 1878, and was awarded a certificate.
During this time, Haibara-style Japanese paper, which went to Western Europe, has been preserved in the Victoria Albert Museum of Art in England, the Glasgow Museum, and the Paris decorative art museum attached to the Louvre Museum in France.
Haibara-style Japanese paper was also used for the paper that signed the San Francisco Convention in 1951.
In the Taisho era, with the development of industry, new measuring instruments were imported from foreign countries, and we succeeded in manufacturing measurement records used for them.
