The center of the painting is made of rice paper, and the frame is made of damask, that is, damask cloth. So it feels like cloth to the touch. If you want to give the painting as a gift, you can buy a blank scroll in an art store. Be sure to buy the one mounted on silk, not the imitation silk paper. You can also paint it on rice paper and then go to a framing shop to frame it. Generally, large painting shops have framing services.
