*Paperolle :
A craft technique that involves rolling narrow strips of paper to create various shapes and ornamental designs. Paperolle is an ancient technique used in poor churches in the Middle Ages to imitate gold or silver filigree decorations. The creations were often reliquaries called paperolle reliquaries. Paperolle is a term derived from paper. It refers not only to the technique, but also to the paper work itself. The term papiers roulés is sometimes used as a synonym.
