Bhutanese Resho Paper | 31 x 22 Inch | 30 gsm

Bhutanese Resho paper is a handmade artists’ paper made from the inner bark, or bast fibre, of de-nar, a Bhutanese variety of lokta. De-nar has a darker tone and harder surface than both Nepalese lokta and mitsumata. It is a native plant of the Himalayan foothills, growing above 3,000 metres. The paper is made using the traditional Himalayan floating mould method, with the pulp poured onto a paper frame and sun-dried on the frame. It is vegan. Each sheet varies slightly in size and colour, creating a naturally rustic appearance. Its semi-transparent, coffee-stained tone and flecked fibres add character to creative work. Ideal for ink drawing, calligraphy, printmaking and collage.
