Tengujo or tengucho paper (典具帖紙, tenguchōshi) is a specialist Japanese paper. It is an extremely thin kōzo paper[1] that is almost transparent. One of its uses is for archival conservation.[2] It has also been used for lighting design.[3]

The paper is produced in the Kochi prefecture of Japan by the company Hidaka Washi since 1949.[2] The product is made with kozo (stems of mulberry trees), alkaline water and neri (a liquid from the tororo-aoi plant).[2]
