These models contain both the girei origami and the yugi origami, but the yugi origami was estimated to have been folded in the early 19th century. The oldest origami in existence are origami models owned by the Moriwaki family. This is considered to be the oldest origami book in existence. The "Hiden Senbazuru Origata" (Secret Folding of Thousand Cranes) published in 1797 was clearly targeted towards adults, which proves that adults as well as children enjoyed origami in those days. The above-stated is the oldest record on the yugi origami. The "Life of an Amorous Man" written by Saikaku IHARA in 1682 said that: One day he folded origami and gave it to a female servant, saying "This is a model of male and female birds in one." After making an origami flower, he attached it to the treetop and said, "This is the branch of a conjoined tree and I will give it to you." He never forgot anything concerning amorous affairs. ![]() ![]() The girei origami is a part of a warrior family's manners and it would appear that it was developed mainly by the Ogasawara clan, the Ise clan and the Imagawa clan in the days of Yoshimitsu ASHIKAGA because "Tsutsumi no ki (record on wrapping)" written by Sadatake ISE in 1764 said that 'the folded paper models on the right were used during the time of the Kyoto shogun.' Furthermore, the current noshi is a stylized noshi awabi (a thin strip of dried abalone wrapped in folded red and white paper), and an example of the girei origami. The ocho and mecho, which are attached to the mouth of a sake bottle, are stylized bottle wrappings. Origami like the paper crane model commonly seen is called yugi origami (play paper folding), and other origami like noshi (folded red and white paper) is called girei origami (ceremonial paper folding).Īs far as is shown in literature, the earliest reference to the girei origami was ocho and mecho (male and female butterfly models) in the haiku, 'butterflies in a beggar's dream are origami' composed by Saikaku IHARA in the 'Ittyuya Dokugin onsenku (4000 Haikus Recited Alone All Day and Night)" in 1680. The Japanese origami can be split into two categories. Typical origami models include cranes (folded paper crane or connected cranes), balloons, paper airplanes, shuriken, kabuto (a samurai war helmet) and yakkosan (a samurai's attendant). Because paper is folded continuously, a completed model can be much smaller than the unfolded paper. A model is made by folding paper carefully or tucking one end of the folded paper into a pocket. A folding bone may be used if an intricate model is made or it is hard to make a crease in paper. In many cases, origami models are made of a sheet of paper without using scissors or glue, but scissors are used to cut paper for certain designs which require two sheets of paper, for example shuriken (a ninja throwing blade). Recently, chiyogami has been sold as traditional art work. Therefore, origami paper can be called chiyogami. In the past, colorful paper called chiyogami was used for origami. Due to the geometric feature of origami, it has been studied as a field of mathematics. Recently, it has been recognized from its artistic aspect, and original, elaborate, designs of beauty have been created. It also refers to a folded paper model itself or a piece of square paper used exclusively for origami.
