Paper & Seasons FAQ

What are the 24 solar terms?

The 24 solar terms are a traditional Chinese calendar dividing the year into named seasons — such as Grain Rain or Frost Descent — each about fifteen days.

What paper do you print on?

We print on heavyweight uncoated cotton or bamboo paper with archival inks, sized to fit standard frames.

Are the prints framed?

Prints ship unframed in a protective sleeve unless the product page says otherwise, so you can choose your own frame.

Can I write on the solar-term cards?

Yes. The paper takes fountain pen and brush ink without feathering.

Do you offer custom calligraphy prints?

Custom text prints are available on request. Contact us with the phrase and size before ordering.
