What is Pergamano?

Pergamano is a combination of two words Perga from Pergamum meaning parchment and ‘mano’ which means ‘to make by hand’ in Spanish. "Pergamano" is the brand name for the large assortment of books, courses, tools and supplies for "parchment craft."  The specialized paper is most commonly used to create greeting cards, although many other decorative works of art can be made from the paper also, such as boxes, lampshades, and 3-D flowers.
