Suminagashi, a Japanese form of marbling, dates back at least to the 1100s. Ground sumi inks were floated on water, then lifted onto paper. The random patterns formed were revered for the way they emulated natural phenomena such as the waves created by wind in fields of grain. The type we are more familiar with, Turkish marbling, was developed in 15th century Persia, and called ebru (cloud art) by the early artisans. More tightly controlled, it lay within the middle eastern artistic tradition of complex overall patterning.

Some history The word ebru (cloud, cloudy) or abru (water face) means in Turkish the technique of paper marbling. The term is derived from the word ebre which belongs to one of the older Central Asian languages and it means the "moiré, veined fabric, paper" used for covering some manuscripts and other holy books. Its origin might ultimately hark back to China, where a document from the T'ang dynasty (618-907) mentions a process of colouring paper on water with five hues. Through the Silk Road, this art came first to Iran and picked up the name Ebru. Around the end of 16th century, tradesmen, diplomats and travellers coming to Anatolia brought this art to Europe and after the 1550s, booklovers in Europe prized ebru which came to be known as "Turkish Paper" or "Turkish marbled paper making".

The size can be made of several different types of gel or gum, but the finest and most detailed marbling must be done on carrageenan size. Carrageenan is an extract from a seaweed called Irish moss. Some marblers still use the actual seaweed to make their size, and it can occasionally be found for sale, but it is a real hassle compared to its commercial extract, carrageenan... the Irish moss has to be chopped, dried, boiled, cooled, strained, and filtered, and the resulting size is brown instead of transparent, which makes it hard to see your colors.
We sell carrageenan in half-pound and one-pound bags. The half-pound bag contains enough to produce over 300 papers of the 9½"x12½" size, and the large bag will make over 600 sheets (as long as you don't throw out your size as soon as it starts to get dirty with excess paint... you can do perfectly fine marbling on dirty size.)
