Have you ever wanted to hold a piece of history in your hands?

Well, these aren’t exactly a piece of history, but you can create your own history with them. Ukiyo-e Works offers archival-quality prints made with archival inks on archival washi printed with a top-of-the-line commercial inkjet printer. The quality of these prints is unmatched… except for genuine woodblock print reproductions.

Why choose inkjet reproductions? Well, if you store these out of direct sunlight in low humidity environments and don’t rub your hands all over them, they could last up to 100 years without fading or yellowing. (The inks have been rated to theoretically last over 200 years without fading, but we’ll stick with the 100 number.)

The amazing colors and details of our printer and inks allow you to get your own copy of pieces that look like originals at a fraction of the cost of a genuine woodblock reproduction, and you have access to hundreds that have not been printed since the 1800s (and likely never again).

You can also choose different types of papers and sizes (currently A4, A3+/13″x19″, and A2). Shipping is a flat rate $10 to the U.S., with other countries being similarly priced. An A4 sheet costs $20, with large sets (like Fifty-Three Stations of the Tokaido) having a built-in discount.
