I would suggest a look at our web site
<URL:http://members.aol.com/barchamg/> with details of our woollen
wet felts which were made to our demanding professional
specifications. They were made entirely from high quality wool,
woven in the traditional way with the nap raised with drums covered
in teasels. Although designed for making new handmade paper, quite a
few paper conservators have bought them and appear to have been very
pleased.
