Genuine papyrus

This ancient writing surface, made from the plant of the same name, has an ochre surface, striated and fibrous, with naturally irregular edges. The slightly rough texure demands tools like the calame, which will hang the fibers less. But with a little precision, you can also use metal tools. 21 x 30 cm format, naturally fringed edges

You can see on the photo of our example the texture of this support and the effect of the writing (extra-black Sumi ink, with a ruling pen, then with a metal nib).
