This Cat B design is the perfect companion to the Cat A roll, completing your whimsical collection. It is the result of a cherished collaboration between Classiky and the artist Naoko Nakanishi, creator of the beloved Toranekobonbon brand. This tape features a delightful, repeat pattern of scattered cat motifs, playful food elements, and abstract doodles, all captured in Nakanishi's signature soft, expressive watercolour style.
Crafted from authentic Japanese Washi paper, the tape offers a delicate, semi-translucent texture. The generous 2cm width and 7 metres length make it ideal for creative uses beyond simple borders; use it for layering, dividing journal spreads, or adding a concentrated block of artistic decoration to gifts and correspondence. It adheres reliably but is designed to be removable and repositionable, ensuring it peels away cleanly without leaving residue or damaging paper. Add this essential piece of playful Japanese craftsmanship to bring joy and personality to every project.
