Marbled paper

Marbled paper is a decorative technique where paint or ink is floated on the surface of a liquid, then carefully transferred onto paper to create intricate, swirling patterns. This process produces unique, wave-like designs resembling marble stone, hence the name. Traditionally used for book covers, endpapers, and art, marbled paper combines artistry with craftsmanship. Each piece is one-of-a-kind due to the manual nature of its creation, and the patterns can range from delicate swirls to bold, dramatic designs. It’s valued for its aesthetic appeal and historical significance in bookbinding and decorative arts.
