HISTORY OF ORIGAMI

The technique of paper making introduced into Japan by China during the early
seventh century, underwent considerable changes in its manufacturing process in
Japan ,giving rise to a type of ―washi‖ paper possessing dual qualities of resilient
sturdiness and softness which prevents tearing when it is handled, Washi, a unique and
distinct type of Japanese paper kindled many forms of cultural creativity, among them
origami.

Unfortunately, it is not clear when origami in Japan first originated, However,


well-regulated lifestyle came with the advent of samurai society which gave rise to the
art of paper folding for practical and formal purposes. From the onset of the Showa
period (1926-1989), the art has rapidly passed into oblivion, but a vestige of its former
use can still be seen in the noshi, a decoration of folded red and white paper attached to
a gift.
Origami made to assume concrete shapes of, for example, a crane or boat is
regarded as origami for pure enjoyment. It began to be made sometime around the
beginning of the Edo period (1600-1868) which coincided with an age in which mass-
produced, low-priced paper came to be widely used by the people.
During the Genroku era (1688-1704), origami of the crane and several varieties
of boats used as designs on clothing became fashionable, and it was also reproduced
with great frequency in Ukiyoe prints. Origami rapidly came to have a wide following
during this period.
About a hundred years later, books and printed matter devoted exclusively to
origami were published, creating a diverse and advanced form of origami. They were
not only a form of children's amusement, but also a form intended for adults. Many of
these origamis were difficult to make because they incorporated many complicated
steps.
The technique of paper making was introduced into Europe in the twelfth century
producing a distinct form of origami. However, origami was not taken up by a large
number of people as it was in Japan.
Not only are there now many imaginative and novel origami creations, but its
educational worth and immense potential have been also reconsidered and recognized.
Origami has gained a widespread following as a hobby among adults. There are now
many origami associations that have been formed overseas by origami enthusiasts.
The Japanese word "origami" itself is a compound of two smaller Japanese
words: "ori", meaning to fold, and "kami", meaning paper. Until recently, all forms of
paper folding were not grouped under the word origami, namely "tsutsumi", a kind of
wrapper used for formal occasions. Before that, paperfolding for play was known by a
variety of names, including "orikata", "orisue", "orimono", "tatamigami" and others.
Exactly why "origami" became the common name is not known; it has been suggested
that the word was adopted in the kindergartens because the written characters were
easier for young children to write. Another theory is that the word "origami" was a direct
translation of the German word "Papierfalten", brought into Japan with the Kindergarten
Movement around 1880.

Initially due to the fact that paper was expensive, origami became an art form
practiced only by the elite and was used for practical purposes such as folding letters.
Samurai would give each other little paper good luck charms known as noshi and Shinto
weddings folded paper butterflies
