Record Type: concept
gampi (paper) (<paper by composition or origin>, paper (fiber product), ... Materials (hierarchy name))

 

Note: Japanese paper produced from the short bast (inner bark) fibers of the species Wikstroemia canescens, native to the mountainous regions of Asia. It is first known from ca. 850 CE. Gampi is a fine, fibrous paper made on a papermaking screen that is covered with a waterproof silk cloth, resulting in a silk-like, woven appearance. While gampi is transparent, smooth, and strong, it has poor dimensional stability, used as tracing paper and as interleaves for beating gold, but not for linings.

Additional Notes:
Chinese (traditional) ..... 以亞洲山區原生植物蕘花(Wikstroemia canescens)的短韌皮(內皮)纖維,所製作而成的紙張,大約出現於西元850年。雁皮紙是一種細緻、多纖維的紙張,透過覆蓋防水絲布的造紙網屏製作,形成絲綢般編織的外觀。雁皮紙透明、平滑而堅韌,但是尺寸穩定性極低,可做為透描紙和製作金箔的隔頁紙,但不做為裱襯紙。 
Dutch ..... Japans papier dat is gemaakt van vezels uit de korte bast (binnenste schors) van de soort Wikstroemia canescens, die inheems is in de bergachtige gebieden van Azië. De eerste gevonden vermelding van het papier stamt uit ca. 850 n.Chr. Gampi is een fijn vezelachtig papier dat wordt geproduceerd op een papierbewerkingsraster dat is bedekt met een waterdichte zijdedoek, hetgeen resulteert in het zijdeachtige geweven uiterlijk. Hoewel gampi transparant, glad en sterk is, heeft het een slechte dimensionele stabiliteit. Het wordt gebruikt als calqueerpapier en als tussengeschoten bladen voor goudbeslag, maar niet voor schutbladen.
