An emboss roller is provided that can give projecting-and-recess embosses to a surface sheet while uniform fiber density is realized. In an emboss roller which has a first emboss roll 11 and a second roll 12 formed as a set and gives projecting-and-recessed embosses by passing a surface sheet between these emboss rolls, on the surface of the first emboss roll 11, a projecting portion 15 projecting outward from a reference surface 14 with the reference surface 14 as a boundary and a recess portion 16 recessed from the reference surface 14 are provided, and the smooth reference surface 14 is present in the periphery of the projecting portion 15 and the recess portion 16, and on the surface of the second emboss roll 12, a projecting portion 18 projecting outward from the reference surface 17 with the reference surface 17 as a boundary and meshed with the recess portion 16 of the first emboss roll 11 and a recess position 19 recessed from the reference surface 17 and meshed with the projecting portion 15 of the first emboss roll 11 are provided, and the smooth reference surface 17 is present in the periphery of the projecting portion 18 and the recess portion 19.
