One of the world's finest water colour papers. A 100% cotton watercolour paper, with a structure giving it strength and a characteristic feel. The manufacturing process, using a cylinder mould, makes it possible to obtain harmonious and varied grains with rough, cold-pressed, hot-pressed quality and four deckled edges. The paper is gelatin-sized, and then air-dried, so that the colours retain a fine rendering even after being scraped and erased. Its natural whiteness (no optical bleaches), mildew protection and neutral PH mean that the paper has a very long shelf-life.

Newsprint is a name given to thin, non-archival paper which is mainly produced for use in packaging and jobbing printing. It is a thin, diaphanous paper, like that used in phonebooks and hotel Bibles. Because it is very thin and cheap by the sheet, relief printmakers use newsprint to take proofs and to clean blocks after a printing session: a couple of prints on newsprint will allow much of the letterpress ink to be printed off the block, which saves wiping with solvents. Intaglio printmakers use it to give plates a final wipe before putting them through a rolling press (that is, after a thorough wipe with a tarlatan cloth, which removes most of the ink from the raised surfaces of the plate). This pack contains 500 sheets of 45gsm newsprint measuring approximately 64 x 90cm. The Use of Newsprint in Make-Ready. Newsprint is often used to create overlays, which adjust or equalise the downward pressure on a plate or block, a process known as make-ready. At 45gsm, this paper is extremely lightweight. It can therefore be used as packing when printing/burnishing by hand or in a simple press (a nipping press, for instance). It can also be used as packing on the cylinder of a cylinder press, or in the tympan of a platen press. When used in this way, it sits behind the sheet which will take the impression from the inked block or type. If the print is under-impressed, simply add another sheet of newsprint to subtly increase the downward pressure from the cylinder drum or platen. A thicker paper would be useless when making fine adjustments to the packing. When small areas of a block or plate need more pressure, it is possible to insert small circles or strips of newsprint into the packing. If used in this way, the insert should be torn rather than cut, so that a feathered edge is produced. This spreads the pressure difference out gradually over a larger area, so that the increased packing isn't visible in the print. Using Newsprint to cut Friskets. The other use of newsprint in relief printing is to produce 'friskets'. Friskets sit in the tympan of a platen press, between the type or block and the paper. They are used to mask areas of the sheet which are intended to remain white in the final impression from splotches of ink, which can build up on the lowered surfaces of the block or type. Printers generally produce friskets by taking an impression on newsprint and using a craft knife to cut out the areas they wish to see in the final print. This creates a 'window' through which the block or the type prints when the press is in action.

Millford is the newest watercolour paper developed by St Cuthberts Mill. It is styled on the discontinued Whatman watercolour paper, after artists grieved the loss of this unique type of watercolour paper.

It is mould made from 100% cotton (just like the original Whatman), and it's beautiful surface is created using natural woollen felts. It is deliberately created to have a high resistance to water, so it’s washes perform very differently to traditional watercolour papers.

Our very own Eco friendly 100% cotton, internally & externally gelatine sized, deckle edged handmade paper from India.
The machinery normally used to make paper uses alot of energy, turning paper pulp into a giant roll of perfectly dry paper in barely a minute. Our handmade papers however are made from recycled cotton, they are individuallyset into the moulds and then dried slowly in the Indian sun. The water used in the production is then run off to irrigate the field neighbouring the factory. These papers are alsomade in special small moulds which allows us to produce beautiful deckle edged sheets in 1/4 & 1/2 imperial sizes. All papers are available at an unbeatable price!
