The BFK range of deluxe papers is mould-made, 100% cotton, neutral pH and tailored for all fine art printmaking techniques. The sheet has a soft supple feel that is internally sized with minimal surface sizing making it perfectly suited for all the traditional printmaking methods; intaglio (etching, aquatint, messotint), engraving, stone lithography and all block printing applications. All of these processes require a paper that has superb surface strength to prevent cracking around the edges from contact with the metal plates as a result of the pressure from the hand presses used.
As is the case with other deluxe mould-made papers this entire range with its supple soft handle is an outstanding choice for all drawing techniques: graphite, pastel and charcoal.
This lightweight paper has a short grain with 2 natural deckles along the 19" one tear deckle & one cut edge along the 26" way.
