Cast paper is a paper crafting technique in which paper fiber or pulp, such as cotton fiber paper, is formed using a mold. The pulp may consist of pure fiber, or be an amalgam of fiber, binder, and filler, such as Papier-mâché. The technique is employed for in-the-round sculpture as well as bas-relief.{{cite web |title=Technique for Paper Pulp Fills on Mold-Damaged Drawings |url=https://www.culturalheritage.org/docs/default-source/annualmeeting/2013am_poster31_technique_for_paper.pdf?sfvrsn=2 |website=culturalheritage |publisher=American Institute for Conservation |accessdate=31 August 2020}}{{cite web |title=How to Cast Paper |url=https://thehamiltonclub.com/journal/a9340a-How-to-cast-paper |website=thehamiltonclub |publisher=How to cast paper |accessdate=31 August 2020 }}{{Dead link|date=November 2023 |bot=InternetArchiveBot |fix-attempted=yes }}
