Re: [BKARTS] Translucent Vellum

[Sally Jackson <serifm@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Transparent vellum (and I assume that's what you mean, as very thin  
or slunk vellum is rather translucent) is available from William  
Cowley and Sons in England. Transparent vellum is made, BTW, by  
heating the skin during the preparation process, or so they told me  
when I went through their vellum works. Nice folks.
