Amate Bark Paper from Mexico: Metro Steel
This gorgeous paper comes to us from a Mexico, where skilled artisans have been producing amate paper for centuries. The culture of amate paper dates back to pre-Columbian Meso-American times.
Amate paper looks amazing if you simply frame a sheet as ready made artwork. Also terrific for bookmaking arts, collage, multimedia artwork, paper sculpture, lampshades, and more.
The artisans that make our amate paper are calling this pattern "Metro Steel." It has a random, angular, almost architectural look. These sheets are completely unique and no two are going to be alike! They are truly works of art unto themselves. Sheets measure 15.5x23".
