A member of one of our "Friends" groups has inquired
about how to take care of an 8 foot square piece of
cloth made from the Broussonetia papyrifera. We
perceive this to be bark or tapa cloth, although we
have not seen the piece, and are unfamiliar with its
condition or appropriate care. Can anyone out there
offer either a brief set of suggestions about the care
of such an item, or a lead to the proper reference so
that we can help this individual?
TIA
Chris Dill
