Vtg Japanese Shikishi Art Board 

This is a vintage shikishi art board. This art board shows two children facing each other and holding flowers in their hands, they stand on a plain bright red background. The elements of this art board were created by assembling pieces of paper cut in the desired shape. This item is an elegant unique display piece that can find a place in any home or office decor.

There are three basic types of shikishi paper—calligraphy (poem, haiku) only, calligraphy with pictures, and pictures only. Since the Heian period, people have been writing waka and haiku on Shikishi paper (various sizes), but in the Meiji period, they started using paper of the current size. In current day, shikishi paper/boards are used for autographs of celebrities and also commemorative messages to friends, coworkers, and classmates.
