At the top, a tuft of thin, elongated green leaves forms. In summer the flowers appear, in a shape reminiscent of the rods of umbrellas, coppery yellow or greenish. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"Cyperus Papyrus\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0800\/7870\/0888\/files\/Cyperus_papyrus_640x198_f65cde98-59f8-4a5d-a50f-102c6a2d67e8_480x480.jpg?v=1706372224\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/vitaromana.es\/img\/cms\/Cyperus_papyrus_640x198.jpg\" alt=\"\" style=\"float: none;\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n \u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #1e300d; font-family: verdana, sans-serif;\"\u003eHow are papyrus sheets made?\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e \u003cspan style=\"color: #1e300d; font-family: verdana, sans-serif;\"\u003eThe stem of the plant is used to make Egyptian papyrus leaves. The pith of the stem is cut into thin strips that are placed next to each other, horizontally and others overlapping vertically and pressed so that the plant sap acts as an adhesive. After several days and after having been rubbed with a stone, shell or piece of ivory, the leaf is ready for use. The artisanal way in which papyrus is manufactured today is the same as that used in ancient times. There are small towns that dedicate themselves and live exclusively from the manufacture of papyrus sheets. Each leaf is a work of art, unique and different.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003e \u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #1e300d; font-family: verdana, sans-serif;\"\u003eCharacteristics:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n \u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #1e300d; font-family: verdana, sans-serif;\"\u003eThis \u003cstrong\u003epapyrus sheet 20 x 30 cm\u003c\/strong\u003e .
