Okakura Kakuzō
In 1891 the Japan Society was founded, and began to disseminate the writings of British expatriates who had worked within Japan, and writings on Japanese art, on topics such as Japanese woodwork, metalwork and Japanese artists Toyokuni I, Hiroshige, Kyosai, the Kano School. Contemporary Japanese art critics also published with the society such as Yone Noguchi and Okakura Kakuzō. Arthur Silver at Rottman, Strome, and Co began using the Ise katagami technique to make wallpaper. Andrew White Tuer also publishes information on katagami stencilling, promoted in England as sanitary 'leather paper' in his "Book of Delightful and Strange Designs, Being One Hundred Facsimile Illustrations of the Art of the Japanese Stencil Cutter" (1892). Furniture in the Anglo Japanese style was also reported by this time to have begun to use Mother-of-Pearl-inlay, a traditionally Japanese material made in Japan and imported for the British market. Allen William Seaby, pupil of Fletchley at the University of Reading begins to study Japanese woodblock printing.
