Paper Mache is an old craft which is handed down to us from centuries ago. It thrived in both France and Great Britain during the 1800’s.
Since 1985 DCC has been the leading designer and importer of Papier Mache products made in the Philippines. Papier Mache is a cottage industry in the Philippines and is largely produced in a 40 square mile area by 1000’s of independent artisans. The Papier Mache shapes are molded over hand carved wood molds and left outside to sun dry. It’s not unusual to drive through that area and find home after home with Papier Mache products drying in the front yards. The Papier Mache made in the Philippines has a unique quality not prevalent from other countries Papier Mache.
