Khadi Paper Origins

Khadi paper originates from India. Handspun from long, fibrous cotton rags, the fibers transform into fine, indian handmade paper. This paper has been produced for centuries!

Since paper made from wood pulp wasnÛªt really introduced until the 19th century, many different materials lent themselves to create paper. Even goats and sheep were once turned into parchment! Luckily, more humane materials like cotton and linen were also used.

Cotton rags are the base of Khadi paperÛªs structure. This offers some unique and incredible advantages to its use. To this day, while there is automatic intervention in its creation, some of the process is manually done.

Handmade Paper Features

There are awesome benefits to using this fine handmade paper. Khadi paper comes built tough because of the materials used. The pulp from cotton rags provides a sturdier structure than traditional sheets of paper.

Also, this indian handmade paper comes in various weights. Like regular paper, the heavier the weight, the thicker the sheet. The varying weights offer different ways to use the paper overall.

The paper usually has unique, deckled edges. These edges form when the paper becomes molded into a sheet. The rough or smooth finishes are characteristic of their overall process as well.

All in all, these features and more make Khadi paper one of a kind.
