The Arches Watercolour rolls are acid-free and are available in two surface options, either Hot Pressed (Smooth) or Cold Press (Slight texture). The rolls are 1.13 x 9.5m in length, and you can choose either a 185gsm or 300gsm paper weight.

Its 100 % long cotton fibre composition gives the paper its beauty, a natural, lasting whiteness and an inimitable touch as well as strength.

Exclusive to ARCHES^®, gelatin sizing to the core preserves the lustre and transparency of the colours whilst preventing paints from penetrating into the paper. It allows superposing of washes and gives it added strength to resist erasing and scratching without tearing or linting. It also allows paints to be removed, either wet or dry, easily revealing the whiteness of the paper. ARCHES® Aquarelle can absorb a large amount of water with limited deformation.

Ideal for watercolour painting, as for all wet techniques such as ink, gouache and acrylic.

The Arches Watercolour rolls are available in both Cold Pressed and Hot Pressed surfaces, and in either a 185gsm or 300gsm weight.
