In this tessellation, I used the same technique of doubling the number of a polygon’s sides as in Sad Octagons, this time making dodecagons from hexagons.

The paper I used was bought by a friend in China. I think it should be classified as Thai Unryu but lacking any sheet confirmed to be Thai Unryu for comparison, I may be wrong. You can see the large Kozo fibers, but this paper was much thicker than the regular Unryu I know, and while relatively soft, could be precreased and collapsed without any treatment.
