Japanese Shrine Pop-up Paper Toy

Tenmangu Japanese Shrine Pop-up Paper Toy

This is the fully-crafted version of this pull-tab-activated pop-up paper toy initially designed by Utagawa Yoshifuji in mid-19th-century Japan, that I reworked and recreated for all to enjoy. I handcut and handcraft this physical version myself, on quality 140 gsm matte photo paper.

Size = 75 x 174 mm (approx. 2.95 x 6.85 in) closed.

You can also purchase the digital DIY template version here, to download, print and craft yourself!
