The ancient art of origami originated in Japan, where it is steeped in traditional values. The 20 models presented in this kit include many with strong symbolic meanings, such as the carp, the frog and the crane, which symbolize longevity, good luck and perseverance.

Also included in this kit are paper models which have practical uses, such as a bag in which to store spices or powdered medications, the masu box for containing small gifts, and uniquely shaped notes with elaborate closures. The more playful side of origami is represented as well: the stylized sumo wrestler with realistic moves has entertained Japanese children for centuries, and the paper Samurai hat is a favorite of kids.

This origami kit contains:

  • A full color, 96-page book
  • Step-by-step folding instructions
  • 20 classic origami projects
  • 72 sheets of 6'' x 6'' folding papers
  • Instructional DVD with 100 minutes of video tutorials
