Wet
paper pulp is dried on a striated surface to create a water-like
texture, then the opalescent Capiz shell is ground up and pieces
are sprinkled on top of the wet paper pulp. When dry, the pulp
glistens with bits of the ground shell. This gives the paper the
appearance of having ice crystals scattered on top. This is a
wonderful paper to use as a background when working with any of
the natural seashells. Sold in 23" x 36" sheets.
