Japanese paper framing project

I love Katazome paper, which is hand-made in Japan with a laborious combination of stenciling and resist dying. The stuff is gorgeous--see fineartstore.com for an excellent selection of the patterns. I got my hands on a few pieces this Christmas and framed them today to put up in the house.

One is a waves and spires design, that would be well suited for any modern interior. The other is a somewhat more traditional floral--that reminds me almost of a William Morris pattern. Together, they form a perfect modern-traditional (mod-trad?) pair.
