The Arches BFK Rives Printmaking Papers have a light, fine grain, that is perfectly balanced with a smooth surface that brings out the slightest of details. An industry favourite and perfect for use in relief, engraving, linocut, letterpress, intaglio, engraving and lithography printing. It is also beautifully suited for pencil, pastel, charcoal and graphite drawing.

This paper is crafted using a traditional cylinder mould process that evenly spreads fibers for a smooth and stable surface. It’s easy to handle during printing and durable enough for multiple press runs. The natural deckle edges come uniquely from this method.
