〘Noun〙① A type of torinoko paper. A thick paper made by layering and filtering blue clouds on the top and purple clouds on the bottom. Used for colored paper and short strips of paper. Usually the blue clouds are placed on top and the purple clouds on the bottom, but for Buddhist ceremonies, memorial poems, etc., they are used the other way around.

[Nihon Sankai Meisan Zue (1799)] [Additional notes]Regarding ①, one theory is that the top and bottom are not reversed depending on whether it is good or bad luck, and when purple is valued, for example, when writing the poem "Kasugano no Wakana no" from "The Tales of Ise," purple is placed on top [Anzai Essays]. Similarly, in the Reizei family, blue is used on top in spring and summer, and purple is used on top in autumn and winter [Karaki Essays].
