由中國、日本與泰國等地兩種蓪草之木髓薄層所製成的紙張。將木髓用螺旋形方式切下，形成長帶狀物，而暴露在外的木髓細胞組織讓蓪草紙具有獨特的海綿結構。濕潤的蓪草紙具有彈性，而乾燥的蓪草紙則易碎；蓪草紙若經加熱會破裂，摩擦則讓蓪草紙易損壞。十九世紀，中國水彩畫和假花皆使用蓪草紙。構樹、雁皮與三椏等植物的長纖維所製成的手工紙，則稱為「和紙」。另外，原產於中國並以竹子纖維所製的優質紙張，則以「中國紙」稱之。

英文....	Paper made from thin layers of pith cut from two species of rice paper trees cultivated in China, Japan, and Thailand. The pith is cut in spirals to form long ribbons, the exposed cellular structure of the pith giving the paper a unique spongy structure. Rice paper is stretchy when wet and brittle when dry; it will crack when heated and is easily damaged by abrasion. Among other uses, rice paper was used for 19th-century Chinese watercolor paintings and artificial flowers. For handmade paper having long fibers from the paper mulberry, gampi, or mitsumata plant, use "Japanese paper." For soft, fine-textured paper of bamboo fiber originating in China, use "China paper."
荷蘭語....	Te gebruiken voor het vezelloos, teer, papierachtig materiaal gemaakt van kern van de rijstpapierboom. Gebruik 'Japans papier' voor verscheidene soorten oosters papier met lange vezels die met de hand worden gemaakt.
西班牙語....	Úsese sólo para el material no fibroso y delicado semejante al papel que se hace con la médula del árbol del papel de arroz. Para varios tipos de papel oriental fabricado a mano con fibras largas, use "papel japonés."
