Description
-
Authentic Papyrus Puzzle by Fluffy Bear is made from genuine Egyptian papyrus, crafted from the same plant used by ancient Egyptians while preserving its natural and chemical properties. The papyrus paper consists of two overlaid layers, showcasing its intersecting fibers and distinctive cross-structured cells.
-
Unlike other plant-based materials, papyrus sheets are uniquely versatile—they can be rolled, written on with ink, and painted with gouache, oil, or charcoal.
- The word “papyrus” refers to both the writing material invented by the ancient Egyptians and the plant from which it was made.
- Papyrus played a crucial role in ancient Egyptian society, transforming it in many ways. After developing papyrus-making technology, the Egyptians kept its production method secret, maintaining a monopoly.
