It is produced in Matsue City. The Izumo region has been a land of paper production since ancient times. During the Edo period, Matsudaira Naomasa, the founder of the Matsue domain, invited paper craftsmen from his hometown of Echizen to develop the paper industry. Paper made in the Edo period in Yakumo-cho, Matsue City (formerly Yakumo Village, Yatsuka County) was reproduced and came to be called Izumo Mingei Paper around 1931 (Showa 6), when the late Abe Eishiro, who later became a Living National Treasure, met Yanagi Soetsu. Its greatest feature is the Japanese paper-making process, which makes the most of the characteristics of the raw materials such as paper mulberry, mitsumata, and gampi. A traditional local craft of Shimane Prefecture.

中国地方、島根県の地域ブランド。
松江市で製作されている。出雲地方は古くから紙を産出した土地である。江戸時代には松江藩祖・松平直正が郷里の越前から紙漉き職人を招いて製紙業を発展させた。松江市八雲町(旧・八束郡八雲村)で江戸時代に漉かれていた紙が再現され出雲民芸紙と呼ばれるようになったのは、のちに人間国宝となった故・安部榮四郎が柳宗悦に出会った1931(昭和6)年頃のこと。最大の特徴は、楮・三椏・雁皮などの原料の持ち味を生かす和紙づくりそのものである。島根県ふるさと伝統工芸品。
