Amalfi handmade paper cards in vat

This is one of the few handmade Amalfi paper card formats still produced in paper mills in ancient masonry vats and with a shape composed of brass and bronze wires dating back to 1700. It is usually used for making elegant business cards.

The manufacturing process of Amalfi Paper consisted of various phases. The raw material was made up of rags, usually cotton, linen or hemp cloths, which were placed in special stone basins, called pile. The rags collected in the piles were then shredded and transformed into a pulp by means of a series of wooden hammers, at the ends of which were placed iron nails. The nails were placed at the ends and were of various sizes, according to the weight and thickness of the sheets of paper to be obtained. Once prepared, the mush was collected in a vat in masonry in which then dropped the form.

The pulp, then, was attached to it and was then transferred on special felt cloths creating a pile of sheets pressed by a wooden press in order to eliminate all the water in excess. Once the drying process was over, the refined Amalfi paper was born, on which stood out the producer’s watermark, which the iron loom indelibly impressed on the dough collected in the vat, by simple pressure. composed in turn of a dense network of bronze or brass wires.

Given their small size, they are generally used for the creation of elegant business cards.

The process of realization of these cards is completely handmade in all its phases according to the historical tradition of Amalfi paper.

The Amalfi handmade paper with which these cards are made is suitable for use with laser or inkjet printers but is equally suitable for handwriting with any calligraphic ink pen and for decoration with watercolor paints.
