Water. Few things are as miraculous. Graceful, powerful,
mysterious - it�s as precious as life itself. Centuries ago,
inspired men and women gazed upon this most vital of elements
and drew forth an art form like no other.
heir name for this
exhilarating dance of color on water is Ebru. Sometimes
described as the art of marble etching, Ebru isn�t chiseled or
painted. Its beauty is unveiled through water. Every tiny drop
of color descends into a sea of possibilities as a masterpiece
is born.

arbling is the art of creating
colorful patterns by sprinkling and brushing color pigments on a
pan of oily water and then transforming this pattern to paper.
The special tools of the trade are brushes of horsehair bound to
straight rose twigs, a deep tray made of unknotted pinewood,
natural earth pigments, cattle gall and tragacanth. It is
believed to have been invented in the thirteenth century
Turkistan. This decorative art then spread to China, India and
Persia and Anatolia. Seljuk and Ottoman calligraphers and
artists used marbling to decorate books, imperial decrees,
official correspondence and documents. New forms and techniques
were perfected in the process and Turkey remained the center of
marbling for many centuries. Up until the 1920\'s, marblers had
workshops in the Beyazit district of Istanbul, creating for both
the local and European market, where it is known as Turkish
marble paper.

he Turkish art of Ebru which is
known to be practiced in Istanbul for more than five hundred
years and known as \"Turkish paper\" for centuries in the
western world certainly has a tradition which is passed from
generation to generation by a master and apprentice
relationship.
bru is an art which cannot be learned by reading
or listening as all other Ottoman Arts. It is extremely
difficult as regards to its performance and effected by various
parameters which are outside the control of a beginner. In order
to overcome all these difficulties and guide the novice marbler
to understand what he/she is doing so that technically perfect
results are achieved, the guidance of a master is needed. It is
seen that there is no marbler without a master and the tradition
is passed from generation to generation by a master and
apprentice relationship if our history of Ebru is examined. Ebru
learned without a master has no relation with Turkish
tradition.
ne of the most important characteristics of the
tradition is the use of natural earth pigments which belong to
the chemical family of metal-oxides and other natural dyeing
material all of which are not chemically soluble in water. The
primary reason for using earth pigments is that the marblers
lived centuries ago had no choice of making dyes other than the
nature itself. Later marblers used dyes of the same origin to
imitate their predecessors, to continue the tradition in terms
of colour and appearance and to make the marbled papers
permanent. It will be useful to clarify what is meant by
\"permanent\". During production of ready to use, off the shelf
fabricated dyes, various acids and casein are added and by
experience, it has been found that these acids burn the paper
hence the binding or the calligraphy where Ebru is used.
