"Faltblätter" simply means "folding sheets" and therefore is a mere
description of the content, no indication of the brand.

This literally translates to "super intensive dive coloured" and means that
the paper has been submerged as a whole into a liquid colour solution to
get a bright intense colouration throughout the whole sheet. If you fold or
cut these sheets no white should show up.

Doesn't sound any familiar to me. The most common brands for folding sheets
in the German speaking area are Ursus and Folia.
Isn't there a barcode with a number on the package? If yes, please tell us
the number.

Apart from folding (what these sheets are obviously intended for), you can
sometimes find  unusually shaped papers for presentations.

[Origami] Round kami weight paper cut from Germany

2018-04-21 Thread cafeina


Found some circles of kami weight paper in my stash in varying diameters
of approx. 6 inches to 1 1/2 inches.

Tried googling the words on the package label and found that Faltblatter
is apparently a brand of origami paper.

The rest of the label reads

superintensiv tauchgefarbt

The company symbol is a black rooster with rainbow tail feathers.

Is there some special use for round paper in Germany?
