Ingredients: Mulberry tree bark, natural plant
fibers, non-toxic dyes, oxygen, patience, and sunshine.
The Paper Making Process: Made
form shedding tree bark, leaves and natural plant fibers grown in
Southeast Asia. After drying, the bark and fibers are boiled down
many times and oxygen bleached (no chlorine). The pulp masses are
spread across bamboo frames and air dried, one sheet at a time, then
milled to smooth the texture.
In tubs, each sheet is
individually dyed with non-toxic, acid-free dyes, then is air-dried.
Next, the individual sheets are placed on a table for hand silk
screening. The sheets air dry again. At the end of this process, a
pair of sheets is gently folded and packaged for you to enjoy!
Supporting The Global
Community: Participating in the preservation of the global
village by supporting local communities and providing jobs that
preserve the old world tradition of papermaking in SE Asia and
benefit out planet as well. A portion of the proceeds go to the
community and animal welfare programs in Thailand. |
