This ARCHES Velin d´Arches Handmade Black paper is a 100% cotton cold pressed paper. Sheets measure 56 cm x 76 cm and have 4 deckle edges. This paper is ideal for printing and dry techniques.

The lightly sized paper is made on a cylinder mould, the slow turning of the cylinder enables the fibres to be deposited evenly and spread in all directions over the wire. The paper is homogeneous and has very good dimensional stability. When printing, the job of positioning the humidified paper is much easier and the paper can easily withstand repeated passages through the press. Only papermaking on a cylinder mould can produce paper with deckle edges.

ARCHES Velin d´Arches Handmade Black paper is suitable for pencil, pastel, charcoal, sanguine crayon, felt pen, lithography, intaglio engraving, relief printing, linocut, letterpress, screen-printing, blind embossing, hot-foil stamping, bookbinding, collotype printing etc. It has a ponounced fine grain: ideal for academic drawing. It allows the artist to play with the surface, to obtain relief effects. It is easily erasable without leaving marks or linting.

This paper offers very good mechanical strength. It is acid-free with alkaline reserve and no optical brightening agents (permanent in accordance with ISO 9706)
