It's a specialist white tissue that holds together when wet. It stays beautifully translucent in the light and takes painting, dyeing and layering without falling apart — so it works where ordinary tissue tears. It's white only, available in large sheets and studio sizes. (It's stronger when wet, but not waterproof or tear-proof.)
