Institute of Fine Arts & Crafts
Japanese origins began shortly after Chinese Buddhist monks took the paper to Japan in the sixth century. The monks nominated it as 200 AD. Due to the high cost of these papers, they were used only for religious purposes. The history of origami came after the invention of paper or to say that this paper was the result of the use of paper in society. The Japanese word origami is a combination of two short Japanese words. Ori (Oru), meaning "Fold", and Kami, meaning "Paper". some time ago whatever things were made by folding paper. It was not counted in origami. Origami is a specialty of art, which distinguishes it from all arts. We keep adding something to our painting and subtracting something in sculpture, but nothing is added or subtracted in origami art. It involves the work of sub-folding. Because of this it holds the most distinguished position.
Kindergarten inventor Friedrich Froebel recognized paper binding. They brought things like weaving and cutting into teaching aids for child development in the early 19th century. As the kindergarten system spread throughout Europe and the rest of the world. It brought small coloured squares, which we know today as origami papers. Joseph Albers the father of art, taught paper folding at origami in the school of design. In this way, gradually this art continued to develop.
One of the most famous origami designs is the "Japanese crane", which is considered auspicious in Japanese culture. His belief is that whoever folds "1000 paper cranes", his heart's wishes are fulfilled.

By the way, coloured paper from both sides is also available in the market. They are also sold in sizes ranging from 2.5 CM, (1 Inch) to 25 CM, (10 inches) or more.
