Washi Masking Tape

Upgrade your workspace with Nichiban’s professional-grade washi masking tapes—available in two essential finishes, Brown #241 and White #251, each in a versatile 12 mm width. Made from ultra-thin Japanese rice paper, these tapes offer crisp, clean edges, smooth application, and residue-free removal, making them ideal for precision work across art, design, and everyday projects.

Perfect for watercolor masking, model-making, labeling, layout work, journaling, and general craft use, both tapes deliver reliable adhesion without damaging surfaces. Each roll tears easily by hand and provides the control and finesse that Nichiban is known for.

Variants
