Origami Chinese Junk Boat Tutorial – Origami Gondola – Paper Kawaii

Learn how to make a traditional origami Chinese junk boat. This unique origami boat is very satisfying to complete because of how you ‘pull open’ the boat in the final step. You can style the points of the boat in a few different ways too.

This is a traditional origami model of a Chinese boat called a ‘Junk’. This origami boat also looks like a Gondola! No one seems to know where the model was first discovered.

I hadn’t folded this origami boat since I was a child and had forgotten how to make it. I just love the final pull-out step of the boat.

An interesting article by David Lister on the origins of this model: http://www.britishorigami.info/lister/junk.php
