Book Arts Paper

Roma for many artists is the pinnacle of Fabriano's artistry in papermaking. Features a wide laid surface created from wire screens that evoke 13th century European papermaking. This magnificent paper proudly bears the ancient Romulus and Remus "she-wolf" watermark. Handmade from 100% cotton, acid-free/neutral pH with four deckle edges. An exquisite choice for deluxe editions, fine art printings, bookbinding, calligraphy and drawing. Eight beautiful Roman earth colors.

Fabriano was the first to create a laid drawing paper named after the portraitist Ingres, which has now become common parlance for this type of drawing paper. Ingres is mould-made with a high cotton content making it an extra strong Ingres style paper. Features acid-free/neutral pH cotton and alpha cellulose, with two deckle edges. Soft, laid texture makes it ideal for charcoal, pastel, pencil, calligraphy, book art and offset printing. Offered in a beautiful range of 20 colors.

Murillo is a hefty card stock featuring a wove surface. 100% high alpha cellulose, neutral pH paper with trimmed edges in 18 beautiful colors. Developed for graphic design, modeling and multimedia. Excellent for embossing, etching and drawing. Internal sizing allows for light water media and offset printing. Black Murillo (Nero) is recognized as the most rigid, acid-free black paperboard anywhere (also available in a pad).

Tiziano's high quality has been made even better with higher cotton content for a softer feel with greater tooth. Slower production speed produces a natural wove texture for a handmade quality. Reverse side is smooth. Mould-made, 75% cotton, acid-free paper in 36 lightfast colors in two sizes and weights. Perfect for pencil, pastel, and charcoal drawing. Sizing makes it suitable for letterpress, light water media, printing and printmaking. Available in pads and rolls.

Handmade from acid-free kozo/pulp with added starch and brushed with persimmon tannin to make it water repellent. Kyoseishi is a popular paper for bookbinding, lampshades, and collage. It can also be sewn into purses, or into artwork with other papers. Its durability comes from both the strength of the kozo fiber, and the handmade process. Making Kyosei by hand allows the fibers to interlock, so that the paper is never weak in any one direction. Available in 20 beautifully rich colors.
