PRINTMAKING
Paper used for intaglio printing must be of a quality that will allow it to be dampened, without falling apart and must be able to pick up the finest detail from your plate. Rag papers, either handmade or mould made are traditionally used in intaglio because of their long fibres.

Paper used in Lithography should be smooth and flat, soft with good dimensional stability that will not stretch uncontrollably under pressure. It should be also capable of absorbing several layers of ink without too much glossing.

Papers for relief printing will be determined partly by whether you are hand burnishing or using a press. If hand burnishing a lighter, finer smoother surfaced paper is recommended. If using a press it is possible to use a heavier paper with slightly more of a texture.
Hahnemuhle
from Germany - renowned for their sensitive qualities - perfect for aquatints, difficult mezzotints, etching and retroussage drypoints. The heavier papers can be used for collagraphs and embossing. Papers are 100% alpha cellulose (unless stated as otherwise) which is acid-free fibre of vegetable origin. Textured.
