Abstract

Despite the existence of proof, it has not been revealed whether or not Korean way of papermaking method using a device equiped with deckle exists for Hanji making. To prove the existence of it, the relation between papermaking method and the shape of filamentous materials in Hanji was investigated. For the investigation, the shape of the filamentous water silk in the Hanji called ‘Taeji’was analyzed. There were two categories of Taeji used in the investigation. One category was Taeji relics which were 10 letter relics written on Taeji in the 1700s to 1800s. The shape of filamentous water silk in the Taeji relics was mainly curved. The other category was Taeji made in 2019. In this category, there were two types of Taeji made by a papermaking device equiped with deckle and one without a deckle. Shape of filamentous water silk in Taeji made by a papermaking device equiped with deckle was curved, while that was linear in Taeji made by a papermaking device with no deckle. Similar results were obtained in the test to make Hanji with the mixture of Dak fiber and black silk thread. As a result, It has confirmed for the first time that the 10 letter relics written on Taeji were made by a papermaking device equiped with deckle. It refers that Korean way of papermaking method using a device equiped with deckle was existed before Japanese method flown in Korea.
