Description

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.
