These cotton papers from India are crumpled (similar to Japanese momi paper) and then flattened out, giving them an incredible texture. No two sheets are exactly alike! Next, the paper has a metallic wash applied to both sides. This is a sturdy yet light weight paper that reflect light beautifully; the crinkled texture gives the paper a "faceted" quality that adds to the sheen. Completely made by hand in India out of recycled cotton rags. The double sided nature of this paper makes it a beautiful choice for book covers. It also folds and creases well, making it great for card making and origami! Approximately 100 g/m 2.
What is Lorem Ipsum?
Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.
Why do we use it?
It is a long established fact that a reader will be distracted by the readable content of a page when looking at its layout. The point of using Lorem Ipsum is that it has a more-or-less normal distribution of letters, as opposed to using 'Content here, content here', making it look like readable English. Many desktop publishing packages and web page editors now use Lorem Ipsum as their default model text, and a search for 'lorem ipsum' will uncover many web sites still in their infancy. Various versions have evolved over the years, sometimes by accident, sometimes on purpose (injected humour and the like).
