Winsor & Newton Watercolour Pads, 9" x 12" - Glue-Bound

This cold-pressed, slightly-textured 140 lb. watercolor paper is crafted in Italy with a mixture of 25% cotton and cellulose. The cotton fibres are internally and externally sized for optimal absorbancy and extreme strength. The paper is ideal for most watercolor styles, gouache, pen and ink. It reflects light well while retaining a transparency of watercolors and its medium grain makes it suitable for all styles of watercolor painting. It's acid-free, archival and free of optical brighteners offering a natural whiteness of archival quality that does not yellow over time. Each pad contains 12 sheets.

• Exceptionally resilient and durable, our watercolor paper will not warp or cockle even when saturated with large volumes of water
• Made on a traditional cylinder mold. This ensures the fibers are interwoven, which gives the paper far greater strength and dimensional stability
• Internally and externally sized for optimal water absorbency, pigment dispersion and lasting colour adherence
• Cold pressed paper has a less textured finish and produces the brightest paintings. Its increased surface area holds more color and rejects more light
• Our classic paper is constructed with 100 Percent cellulose wooden pulp with pure spring water. 12 Sheets per pad
