Description
Paper made by hand rather than by machine. Handmade paper characteristically has uneven edges that are referred to as Deckle edge paper. Some machine-made papers may also have irregular edges, such as paper made on the cylinder cold machine, and are difficult to distinguish from the handmade papers. In general, handmade papers, as well as all deckle edge papers, are considered high quality. Size, such as Starch or Gelatin, is usually added to the pulp and additional size is put on the surface to minimize the spreading of ink.
