Paper making in Rajasthan dates back to 1520s when Mughal emperors encouraged
this art and established a paper industry here. It was Maharaja Jai Singh
II who bought this art to Jaipur and set up a paper business in Sanganer
on the outskirts of the city. Today, the name of Sanganer has become synonym
of the handmade paper.

Paper Making
The process of making paper begins by reducing cotton waste to pulp. Flower
petals and other accessories are added to the pulp which is then transferred
to large tanks. Big trays of fine mesh are submerged into the water to
take out the pulp from the bottom of the tank, which is then covered with
a piece of muslin. The sheet of pulp is added to a pile. The pile is then
pressed to drive out most of the water. The resulting sheets are peeled
off the muslin and left to dry. The final result is handmade paper which
is graceful with embedded various products. They may be further ornamented
by different craft accessories.
