The white and natural are made from 100% mulberry and the bamboo is made from a bamboo and mulberry mix.

If you are an artist, specialist printer or suppliers to these markets, please check out these papers. Through experience, artists learn which papers are best suited for a particular technique. Our papers have the following characteristics.

All of our papers are well suited to dry media such as pencil, pastels, charcoal, etc.

Particularly good results have been achieved with etching, lithographs and block prints. Our papers also work with inkjet and laserjet printers.

The papers are suited for wet media such as poster paints, acrylic and oils, but we recommend that the paper should be treated like a canvas and coated with a suitable sealing agent if heavy brushwork techniques are used.

The bamboo paper is excellent for wood cut block prints and embossing. It also works well with the media listed above but is not suitable for watercolour.
