Sri Aurobindo Ashram Paper Mill

South India, has two well known paper mills. One, in Pondicherry, is called, "The Sri Aurobindo Ashram Mill" (visit this one when in india). This mill uses both European and Asian methods of paper making. Papers are tub sized, the paper maker using his/her hands 2 spread pulp, but uses a European wove mould and a deckle (wooden frame) which creates a deckle edge. The sheets are couched into "woolen felts" (why wool?), they then hang to dry & are tub sized (euro method again). Posted by Marcia Neblett at 9:53 AM
