The Book of Fine Paper
This is a reference guide to the finest papers available in the world today. It explains how different papers are made, what they are used for and where to find them. Special features of the book include: full descriptions of dozens of different varieties of paper, with details of character, manufacture, usage and where to find them; practicalities - how to store, fold, cut, tear paste, preserve and repair papers; diagrams on papermaking; a guide to sizes and weights, and a glossary of terms; a comprehensive international list of makers, sellers and sources of information; a selection of paper samples, especially mounted so that their weight and texture can be felt. The essence of each type of paper is discussed in detail, concentrating on handmades, but also covering mouldmades and fine machinemades. A section documents paper usage, looking at delicate sheets (for watercolour, drawing, etching, bookmaking and computer output) as well as decorative stock in beautiful and unusual colours, sizes, textures, surfaces and contents. Illustrations display the rich diversity of papers - from shades of white to wild and rough Costa Rican handmades, as well as an extensive range of watermarks.
