At Atelier Sennichiko, you can try ikkan-bari using authentic washi paper or old kimono cloth.

"The 20cm (7.9in) round bamboo plate can be made in about 2 hours and is a useful small item for decoration or everyday use. An ikkan-bari instructor will carefully teach you how to make it.

Atelier Sennichiko

Ikkan-bari is a traditional Japanese craft from long ago made of bamboo baskets or wooden objects covered with layers of Japanese paper and finished with “kakishibu” (persimmon tannin used for strength and protection against water). The word “ikkan-bari” (一閑張り) means "strong enough to withstand consistent weight", which is the origin of its name. (Note that there are various other theories as well.)
