India paper

India paper is a very thin, soft yet strong paper that has typically been used for printing die proofs. There is essentially no visible weave and tiny slivers/bits of bamboo will be found embedded in the paper.

A die sunk card is often first faced with India paper before a print is made of a proof. US small die proofs are also typically on card faced with India paper. In some cases, cut-down die proofs can have India paper separate from the card backing.
