In 1519, William Horman could write in his Vulgaria: "That stouffe that we wrytte upon, and is made of beestis skynnes, is somtyme called parchement, somtyme velem, somtyme abortyve, somtyme membraan." Writing in 1936, Lee Ustick explained that: However, there has long been much blurring of the boundaries between these terms. The best quality, "uterine vellum", was said to be made from the skins of stillborn or unborn animals, although the term was also applied to fine quality skins made from young animals. Calf, sheep, and goat were all commonly used, and other animals, including pig, deer, donkey, horse, or camel were used on occasion. However, in Europe, from Roman times, the word was used for the best quality of prepared skin, regardless of the animal from which the hide was obtained. The word "vellum" is borrowed from Old French vélin 'calfskin', derived in turn from the Latin word vitulinum 'made from calf'. Quran from the 7th century written on vellum It is used for a variety of purposes including tracing, technical drawings, plans and blueprints. Modern "paper vellum" is made of synthetic plant material, and gets its name from its similar usage and high quality. Scratching the surface with pumice, and treating with lime or chalk to make it suitable for writing or printing ink can create a final look. To create tension, the process goes back and forth between scraping, wetting and drying. The making involves the cleaning, bleaching, stretching on a frame (a "herse"), and scraping of the skin with a crescent-shaped knife (a "lunarium" or " lunellum"). Vellum is generally smooth and durable, but there are great variations in its texture which are affected by the way it is made and the quality of the skin. Thus the term avoids the distinction between vellum and parchment. It may be very hard to determine the animal species involved (let alone its age) without going to a laboratory depending on the way of making the paper. Modern scholars and experts use the general and potentially-confusing term "membrane" more often. Vellum is prepared for writing and printing on and used for single pages, scrolls, codices, or books. It is distinguished from parchment when it is made from calfskin, rather than that made from other animals, or having a higher quality when it is not. Vellum is prepared animal skin or membrane, typically used as writing material. “Women can have bulges and that’s okay.A vellum deed dated 1638, with pendent seal attached We are normalizing the bulge,” Mulvaney sings towards the end of the video. Mulvaney then explains that she could either wear looser clothes, do a “tuck” (which she describes as painful), or she can “normalize women having bulges sometimes.” “And I went, ‘Oh, I forgot that my crotch doesn’t look like other women’s crotches sometimes because mine doesn’t look like a little Barbie pocket,'” Mulvaney said. In the video filmed earlier this year, Mulvaney explained that she got unusual stares from people in public when she wore tight clothing. Her appearance generated media attention and caused a months-old video about “normalizing bulges for women” to resurface.
