It's expensive, so most handmade paper is only found in private press books or artist books. During the 1800s, the art of hand papermaking was almost completely lost in favor of machine-made paper. In the early 1900s, however, the arts & crafts movement brought about a resurgence in hand papermaking. There are a few companies out there that still produce paper by hand.

Really cool stuff. This may be a silly question but I hope you'll forgive me as I really don't know too much about paper. Are there book sellers today who still use this process? Maybe people who are attempting to capture the attention to detail and care? And do you know how current paper manufacturers improved the process over time? Just curious! P.S. I responded to your comments on my blog below your original post. Wow! Really cool stuff. This may be a silly question but I hope you’ll forgive me as I really don’t know too much about paper.
