Paper marbling

Paper marbling is an artistic technique that creates intricate, colorful patterns on paper, resembling marble stone. It involves floating pigments or dyes on a viscous, water-based solution called size, then gentlylaying paper onto the surface to pick up the design. The patterns are formed by manipulating the floating colors with tools like combs or brushes before transferring them. This centuries-old craft produces unique, decorative papers used in bookbinding, art, and stationery, showcasing a mesmerizing blend of chemistry and artistic skill. Each sheet is one-of-a-kind, reflecting the fluid, organic nature of the process.
