A great history of paper making from China 100 BC to Italy 1300’s and up to modern times. It has working machinery from the 18th century, and demonstration of early hand made methods of making paper from rags. There are many exhibits of ancient papers and documents, hundreds of watercolor paintings. It is well worth the visit. You can purchase stationery and envelopes on hand made watermarked paper in the store. The products are beautiful and reasonably priced.
