The art of creating paper figures by special folding of the sheet appeared in ancient Japan shortly after the appearance of the paper there and was originally endowed with religious meaning, and therefore developed at churches and monasteries.

This art, later called origami (literally “folded paper”), became widespread after paper became widely available and relatively inexpensive.

Here we have collected both simple diagrams of figurines and origami crafts, as well as complex, interactive schemes.

The popularity of origami in Japan could only be compared with Chinese kites, and it has survived to the present, spreading to the Western world along with other oriental arts.
