Review: Excellent paper at a price that won’t break the bank - I use this paper for my some of my calligraphy projects. It has a texture that looks very nice (although the texture requires a bit of care with my pen, but I knew that before I bought it). This paper is very absorbent (which means that my fine lines do not “feather”, they remain sharp. This is a big deal to calligraphers, because lots of our lettering is very precise and different elements of out letters and flourishing can be very close together. If the paper causes the lines to feather or bleed into each other, the piece is ruined. This paper is great for preventing this. It’s nice and thick (140 lb). Highly recommend. Review: Good paper - This paper is really good. Been using it for a while now. It does warp a little when it starts to dry, but then it flattens itself back out. ## Features - This cotton/alpha cellulose watercolor paper is excellent for watercolor, gouache, acrylic, ink, charcoal and greeting card design - Paper performs and feels like 100% cotton rag and is exceptionally absorbent - Machine-made, acid-free, and sized internally and externally - Priced for students and beginners - Made in Italy ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B005NQ27UM | | Best Sellers Rank | #7,197 in Arts, Crafts & Sewing ( See Top 100 in Arts, Crafts & Sewing ) #55 in Watercolor Paper | | Brand | Fabriano | | Brand Name | Fabriano | | Color | White - 50 Sheets | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 out of 5 stars 750 Reviews | | Included Components | 1 Pad | | Item Dimensions L x W | 12.1"L x 9.05"W | | Item Type Name | Cold Press Watercolor Pad | | Item Weight | 2.2 pounds | | Manufacturer | Fabriano | | Material | Paper | | Material Type | Paper | | Paper Dimensions | 9 x 12 inches | | Paper Finish | Watercolor | | Paper Weight | 15 | | Product Dimensions | 12.1"L x 9.05"W | | Recommended Uses For Product | Watercolor | | Sheet Count | 50 | | Unit Count | 1 Count | | Warranty Description | No. | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Fabriano - **Color:** White - **Material:** Paper - **Paper Finish:** Watercolor - **Sheet Size:** Letter ## Images ![Fabriano Studio Watercolor Pad, Cold-Press, 9" x 12", 140 lb., 50 Sheets - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71nfqC66+PL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Color, Size, Style** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: does it need to be stretched?** A: I like it better stretched. As it is only 140 lb, I think it does better when stretched. **Q: I love fabriano paper but i find that my art photographs are not white but off-white. is white not white? what can i do?** A: Most traditional "white" watercolor paper is an off white shade. You can look for special white papers that do have more true white shade, such as; Fabriano Artistico Extra White Watercolor Paper and Arches Bright White Aquarelle Watercolour Paper . These are also sold online at other specific art supply sites. Don't know if these are sold on Amazon, but you can check. **Q: is the sizing plant based or animal based?** A: Paper is 25% cotton and I believe the other 75% is some sort of tree pulp. All plant based materials. This is more of an introductory level of paper. Higher quality is usually 100% cotton. Not sure what you mean by is “sizing” plant based? **Q: Does it have 50 sheets? or 12 sheets? please confirm** A: This has 50 sheets. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent paper at a price that won’t break the bank *by B***N on January 22, 2024* I use this paper for my some of my calligraphy projects.
