Painting on papyrus paper creates a magnificent textured unique piece of art, that you can hang on your wall and be sure that it will impress you, as well as your guests every time you look at it. The more the sheets are soaked the darker they become. All the steps are made by hand, and the Papyrus Paper gets its unique neutral color naturally from soaking into water.

The process of crafting papyrus paper is a green eco friendly process that goes back thousands of years ago. The result is an exquisite natural cotton like, yet slightly textured handmade paper like you’ve never seen before. The sheets are then hammered to squeeze out the remaining water, dried, then polished and cut to size. The sheets are formed by arranging the strips side by side in two cross layers, then soaking them in water for six to twelve weeks. Our suppliers responsibly grow their own plants, then use the inner stems to make the thin strips form which the final papyrus sheets are formed. Our papyrus paper is handmade in Egypt from the inner stem of the finest Cyperus Papyrus plants. Often gods and goddesses like Isis and Osiris were painted emerging from those trees. Acacia tree was considered the tree of life by the ancient Egyptians and was always found along with the Sycamore tree in wall paintings and murals. Origin: Hand Painted in Egypt on Handmade Egyptian Papyrus Paperĭescription: This beautiful painting by Adel Ghabbour is showing the Acacia tree with birds all over it’s branches.
