The Arches Velin BFK Rives White Pad 180gsm is renowned for its luxurious texture, archival quality, and versatility across fine art and printmaking techniques. Made on a traditional cylinder mould with 100% cotton, this paper offers a quality comparable to handmade sheets, ensuring even fibre distribution and outstanding dimensional stability. The slow turning of the mould gives the surface a beautifully even grain and a soft, tactile feel that artists love.
When printing, the Arches Velin BFK Rives White Pad 180gsm allows for precise positioning and easy handling of humidified sheets. Its resilience ensures it can withstand multiple passes through the press without distortion. The result is a paper that performs exceptionally for both detailed and expressive work, maintaining perfect registration throughout. Only cylinder-mould papermaking can produce the authentic deckle edges that define its premium quality.
Featuring a light fine grain, this paper achieves the perfect balance between softness and smoothness - ideal for capturing subtle tonal variations and delicate mark-making. It is a favourite among artists for its ability to enhance depth, contrast, and detail across a wide range of media.
