The particular grain of the surface and the highly lightfast colours are the principal characteristics of this laid paper. It is acid free and particulary recommended for deluxe editions, advertising (company presentations, posters, calendars, brochures, leaflets and catalogues), fancy paperwork and book binding applications, drawing (pastel, charcoal) and collage.
The Fabriano 1264 Bristol Smooth features an extra white paper that is indeed extra smooth, thus enabling intricate work as well as exceptional contrasts.
