The kozo, or paper mulberry tree, is the best known raw material for washi paper, and there are many different kinds of kozo. All have their own characteristics though it may not be apparent by the way they look. The WACCA logo is called Kozo-mon plus Sotowari kuro-kozo-mon, and literally means a kozo crest, plus split exterior kozo leaves. It is an original motif featuring a common kozo leaf in the center of a black kozo leaf, split in half.
