Arches Lavis Fidélis

One particularity: this paper has two different sides, cold pressed on the top for watercolours, hot pressed on the back for drawing. Made on a Cylinder mould (Traditional Process). The slow turning of the cylinder enables the fibres to be deposited evenly and spread in all directions over the wire. The paper is homogeneous, with a flatter surface and better wet strength and stability, giving the artist more control. Only papermaking on a cylinder mould can produce paper with deckle edges.
