They know people are lazy and it takes too much work. Who's going to jump and start doing this work? It's not necessarily inspiring...

As an artist, I'm terribly attracted to the permanence of these extremely difficult to find parchments. There's lots, and lots of parchment works in the world that are way more than 1,000 years old. So, if you have a project that can be helped by that kind of permanence - A family tree - for example. I think it can be a very, very good idea to contact Pergamena for making a purchase. Plant based papers, with the exception of (Maybe!) acid free cotton rag just can't possibly hold up over extreme lengths of time and mostly just turn to dust unless preserved in well controlled environments protected from temperature, humidity, and (sunlight) ultra violet and other types of radiation.

this is incredible, respect to you and the family business mate 👏👏💪💪

I love how humble he is.

respect to him mastering and sharing his skill most masters probably won't share their process

What a man. You're doing great!

In the old tannery days, they used dog poop and water to remove hair from pelts. They also used urine to degrease sheeps wool dye cloth and treat hides. The whole process was located down wind and as far out of town as possible.

Huge *respect* for this man

Ah I love being an artist, I love the different types of paper, color markers, paint people put their love and effort into. It really does show the love people have for craft

Very cool that he was able to find such a unique and interesting way to save the family business.

Wow. I'm just grateful and so thankful to modern mass produced paper. It has made paper so accessible. Thankyou to all the inventors.

They still make it in Greece and the name pergamini that you refer to is not Latin but Greek and refers to a place called pergamos in turkey now that was back then Greece and it used to be one of the biggest most famous producers of this type of paper.

For one, they say he's the only one in the US that currently makes it. They didn't say anything about the rest of the world. And two, she refers to the word pergamena, which is a latin word for parchment. If you listen the the video, he changed the name of the business to that. No one was claiming it was Greece word, no one was claiming it Greece didn't also make paper. The Latin word was made way before Greece was even a thought.

@@Lt.Waffles bro this word is Greek. They call it that way because of what I said. And then the latins/romans took it too.
