Created by Japanese master kite artist, Mikio Toki, who specializes in making Edo kites, this rectangular kite is the shape most often associated with Edo, or Tokyo. It is 11 3/4 inches, and made of washi (Japanese paper), with bamboo spars from Japan. A favorite among art and social studes/history teachers, this kite can be integrated with lessons in Japanese culture and visual arts. Decorate with markers, watercolor, ink, or collage; the shape also easily accommodates woodblock prints.

Also available in packages of ten kites.
