But we print the products' names on the paper first, then tear each square paper to put on bottles ( see the picture 1 ). A visitor from US calls it ` a secret edge ` . Well, I had thought  it's much better than some paper made by machine with the edge cut by water afterwards, but hearing her opinion, maybe this is not the genuine one either....

Here is another example using another method how to make paper ( see the picture 2 ). No tearing but just as it is.

Anyways, we call the edge `Mi-Mi ` in Japanese : ) Hope you can uderstand my poor explanation in English !
