Our Store -
Paper Tree is family owned and operated, and is celebrating its 55th year as a retail store in Japantown. Selling wholesale began in 2013 with the acquisition of Mountain Valley Papers as a complement to our retail operations. Prior to opening the retail store, the Mihara family owned a publishing and import business called Oriental Culture Books in the 1950's, also based in Japantown.
The Mihara's published one of the first origami books in English in the 1950's and today their grandchildren and great-grandchildren continue the tradition of teaching and sharing origami around the world.
Sisters Vicky Mihara Avery and Linda Mihara are both award-winning origami artisans and have been featured in mutiple books, shows, and more. Please visit their respective galleries to view their artwork and learn more about them:
