The Arches BFK Rives Tan is a warm brown-toned printmaking paper that features a light, fine grain, that is perfectly balanced with a smooth surface that brings out even the slightest of details.

This paper is crafted using a traditional cylinder mould process that evenly spreads fibres 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.

An industry favourite and perfect for use in relief, engraving, linocut, letterpress, intaglio, engraving and lithography printing. It is a paper that is also beautifully suited for pencil, pastel, charcoal and graphite drawing.
