for wrapping bingcha and similar, i found this (thanks, @phyllsheng):
https://www.chawangshop.com/tea-hardwar ... h-tea.html
https://www.chawangshop.com/tea-hardwar ... tea-2.html

rice paper is useful as well for protecting tomobako calligraphy.

can anyone recommend other sellers of natural papers for tea-related applications?

Those are really nice. Thinking they can also be used for general loose leaf aging and storage in canisters, to absorb incidental moisture.

I think i can recommend search rice paper on the TaoBao. It will be many cheaper then on English speaking resources.

maybe you need something like this? Its not a handmade paper but its only 3 $ for five rolls and its not a problem find what you need on taobao. However, some problems with delivery there will probably be.

Also if tou need rice paper for your tea cakes, you can buy it with you design inexpensively.
