Previously,
coconut husks were burned or discarded, whereas now they exemplify how
the sustainable use of forests resources can be preserved while
providing numerous sources of income. Cocount fiber paper is handmade in
India from recycled cotton rag. It is a paper made of coir, which is
coarse fiber from the husk of a coconut. Coconut fiber paper forms one
of the most exotic range of exclusive handmade papers.
A base of thick textured paper is infused with thin strands of cocount
fibers that give this paper an earthy feel and a subtle texture. A wide
color range includes bright colors, earthtones, and subtle pastels.
Because of its unusual texture and rich color, it is great for
decorative arts and collage. Handmade Coconut Fiber Paper can also be
imported from Thailand and Nepal.
