The paper is a mid-texture and a heavyweight 250gsm.

Suitable for watercolour, and all painting uses, as well as all dry and soft media – for oil painting, the surface will need to be prepared with gesso.

Each sheet is individually handmade and features a fully deckled edge.

Created entirely by local artisans in Northern India using traditional paper-making methods,

It is important to note that natural variations in paper size, colour and shape will occur between sheets due to the handmade nature of the product; each sheet is totally unique!

It is also 100% acid-free with a neutral pH. Being handmade results in a paper with no real discernible grain direction. Some extremely faint marks might be discernible on one side of the paper (imprinted from the screen mesh) however there is no front and back to the surfaces. Each sheet is totally unique

Please Note: I do not recommend feeding this paper through a printer (laser/inkjet), this is as the paper is fibrous and could lead towards damage to the printer.
