This paper was discovered and made ​​available for the first time for the origami community by Origami-shop, on 3 September 2013.

Qualities :

This paper has a great wrinkled texture imitating skin of animals such as rhinoceros or elephant. Smooth, rather thick (110 gsm) and water resistant, it is ideal to capture organic shapes (like flowers and animals since there are many curves to be put in them), for wet-folding as well as tesselations. 

• These items are proprietary products to our shop because we cut them into squares and conditioning them ourselves.
• Important: Sheets with format 50x50 cm will be sent folded by us. It therefore inevitably contain creases but of course, the traces will not interfere in the final appearance of your model. By ordering this paper, you agree to receive sheets folded.

 

	Choose  this paper:
	- To give roundness, 3D effects and capture more organic shapes  (like flowers and animals since there are many curves to be put in them) - To have an amazing texture adding to your folds - To fold tesselations and modulars - To use wet-folding Technique

 

	Do not choose this paper:
	- For children (the paper is too thick to be folded with small hands)

 

How to use this paper:

Dry-folding for tesselations, modulars and complex models   Wet-folding for models which need a lot of shape For more details, read Gilad Aharoni's article   1) Technic #1 (easiest): Fold (dry) the model as far as possible. When the folds become too difficult, wet the flaps and creases with a damp sponge or water spray. 2) Technic #2: Moisten the entire sheet with a damp sponge or a water spray. Fold your model quickly before it dries. Dry with a hair dryer or outdoors holding sometimes parts of the model with clothespins. This technique requires that you know perfectly the folding sequences to fold the model as quickly as possible.   Example of models folded with Rhinoceros Hide papers: Sheet 24x24 cm  (9.5"x9.5") Sheet 35x35 cm  (13.8"x13.8") Sheet  50x50 cm  (19.7"x19.7") Sheet 70x70 cm  (27.5"x27.5")
