RICE PAPER

This article appears in Volume V23, Page 291 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: RHY-RON
RICE PAPER . The substance which has received this name in Europe, through the mistaken notion that it is made from
rice
 , consists of the pith of a small tree, Aralia papyrifera, which grows in the swampy forests of Formosa. The cylindrical core of pith is rolled on a hard flat surface against a knife, by which it is cut into thin sheets of a fine
ivory
 -like texture. Dyed in various
colours
 ,
rice
 
paper
  is extensively used for the preparation of artificial
flowers
 , while the
white
  sheets are employed by native artists for water-colour drawings.
