Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Simply Gilded is a woman- and Asian-owned boutique design studio backed by over 10 years of specialized manufacturing knowledge. Every tape roll is designed with a unique visual perspective, blending whimsical hand-drawn art with rich metallic foil accents.

We use studio-tested, low-relief hot-stamp foil techniques to ensure surfaces remain smooth for writing and stacking. Paired with high-grade Japanese rice paper and custom acrylic adhesives, our tapes achieve exceptional durability, peel strength, and aesthetic appeal that end-consumers trust worldwide.

Washi Tape: Manufactured from natural Japanese-style rice paper fibres. It has a smooth matte texture, is hand-tearable without tools, accepts gel inks and graphite, and can be repositioned easily off paper surfaces without damaging paper fiber.

PET Decorative Tape: Utilizes a thin, ultra-clear polyester film backing. PET tape offers vivid high-resolution color printing with crisp foil overlays. It is cut with scissors or fine craft blades and is ideal for clear glass, resin art, plastic dashboards, and transparent planner layers.

Our standard production roll specifications include:

Our design team releases brand-new pattern collections every 1 to 3 weeks. Core collection items and signature bow patterns are restocked systematically.
