It became so popular in Kashmir that the art which started from Persia and Central Asia became the art of Kashmir. The name, ‘paper-mache’ means ‘chewed paper’. The name is appropriate for the art as pulp is made of wet paper, then adhesives are added to make the pulp sticky. From this sticky pulp, products are constructed. There are two procedures which are followed to make paper-mache products: Sakhtsazi and Naqashi.
