A mould-made watercolour paper from Fabriano, produced with 50% cotton fibres to provide strength, absorbency control, and reliable performance across wet techniques. Positioned within the Fabriano 5 range, it offers a balance between professional handling and accessibility.
The rough grain surface has a pronounced texture, designed to enhance pigment granulation and create strong tonal variation. This makes it particularly suitable for expressive watercolour work, dry brush techniques, and applications where surface texture plays an active role in the final result.
Internal and surface sizing regulate how water and pigment interact with the sheet, allowing controlled washes while preserving crisp highlights. At 300 gsm, the paper maintains good dimensional stability when wet, reducing excessive buckling during painting.
The pad format provides a practical, ready-to-use surface for studies and finished pieces, while the acid-free composition ensures long-term durability.
