Set 20 Egyptian Blank Papyrus Paper 8x6in (20x15cm) - Ancient Pharaoh Pharaohs Alphabets Papyrus Sheets Papyri for Art Project Scrapbooking and School History Ideal Teaching Aid Scroll Paper

My 7 year old daughter is in love with Egypt right now and we've been buying all sorts of books and doing a lot of different crafts. She's memorized all the hieroglyphs at this point lol. I wanted to give her some papyrus paper for her to write her hieroglyphs on and this seemed like the answer.Here's the funny part...My husband made a pyramid playhouse and we invited some friends over to play. We also made cartouches and amulets out of clay and even had a menu based on what ancient Egyptians ate--it was all Egypt all day. I had forgotten I ordered the papyrus and coincidentally the package literally arrived from Egypt in the middle of the party. You should have seen my face as I tried to figure out WHO was sending me ANYTHING from Egypt. How did Egypt know we were having a party?????Then, of course, I opened the package and remembered. We all had a good laugh and my daughter was delighted with the postage stamps and Arabic writing. We sent all the kids home with some papyrus.

Rather coarse

Great paper. Item arrived very quickly, in a couple of weeks all the way from Egypt. The paper itself looked good, some pages had rough edges or gaps between fibers (this is exactly the look I needed for my art project), but the majority of pages were well finished and without flaws. I ordered three sets of the paper and they were really well packaged to make such a long journey. I am very happy with my purchase.

Absolutely pleased with the sheets of papyrus! In ancient times papyrus paper was a major export of the Egyptians. May the current Egyptians, too, come to do the same eventually. Restoring the wetlands of the Nile could result in papyrus 'swamp forests' on the riverbanks and a new source of income from a renewable resource. I hope this purchase is one of many to come from a renewed Nile Valley of the future.

The papyri is VERY good quality and is of good thickness ans smoothness too. Some papyrus I've seen is too rough, too thin, etc. - but these are perfect!It came with 20 sheets plus a little postcard souvenir of Nefertiti which was so kind of them to include! Each sheet is unique and I seriously can't wait to start using them.

This ships from Egypt and is the real thing. As such, it is irregular sized sheets with a textured finish. Some edges may be ragged. All of which adds to the character and 'coolness' of the product. Out of the package it tends to roll after a few days.Despite coming from Egypt, the shipping time is not unreasonable. It was wonderful to have real papyrus for our school's Cross Culture Day.

I was teaching a class about canonicity and wanted to start by showing how ancient papyrus was made. This arrived in a timely manner and was very well made for the cost, People could hold their piece up to the light and plainly see the crisscross manner of the construction. I highly recommend this product!

This is awesome! It arrived from EGYPT in less than a week! We did a fantastic art project with it and everyone who sees the designs is very impressed that we used real papyrus!
