FINE ART PAPERS | MATT/SMOOTH

Smooth and matte papers — often referred to as “smooth/matt” — feature a soft, non-reflective surface with no gloss. This characteristic gives them a discreet and elegant appearance, making them particularly well suited for those who wish to highlight detail without the distractions caused by light reflection. They are, naturally, an excellent choice for photographic and illustration printing, as well as for luxury editions. Beyond their visual qualities, they also stand out for their dimensional stability, high opacity, and ability to reproduce colours with great clarity. All of this contributes to long-lasting prints with consistent colour reproduction — essential in high-quality artistic and graphic applications.

FINE ART PAPERS | MATT/ TEXTURED

Textured/matt papers feature a matte finish with a perceptible relief, offering a rough or granular feel due to their fibre structure or textured coating. Ideal for printmaking, engraving, watercolour, reproductions, and hand-crafted work, they enhance depth and tactile character. They provide good ink holdout, soft contrast, and a handcrafted appearance, ensuring high archival durability and strong visual expressiveness in artistic (fine art reproduction), photographic, and illustration projects.

FINE ART PAPERS | BARYTA

Baryta papers are coated with barium sulphate (baryta) on a cellulose or cotton base and were originally used in traditional photography to achieve high gloss, a wide tonal range, and deep blacks. Today, microporous inkjet versions are also available, preserving the classic baryta look while ensuring fast drying, durability, and colour fidelity in Fine Art prints with archival longevity.

POSTER PAPER

These papers are designed for those seeking a simple aesthetic, with excellent legibility, good colour reproduction, and stable behaviour in production—especially when printing posters and low-price open editions. Results are consistent and “surprise-free”. They are typically matte papers with a smooth surface and a more editorial feel than cotton fine art papers. This gives them a distinct presence: less “museum-grade luxury” and more poster-oriented, with particular emphasis on production cost efficiency.

FINE ART PAPERS | AWAGAMI / WASHI

Washi papers are traditional Japanese substrates, handmade from natural fibres such as kozo, mitsumata, or gampi. They are characterised by high strength, durability, and slight translucency. The artisanal process involves aqueous fibre dispersion, manual sheet formation, and drying without harsh chemical additives. Washi paper is widely used in illustration, photography, printmaking, and fine art, combining robustness with a unique aesthetic.

The word Giclée (pronounced “zhee-clay”) comes from the French gicler (“to spray”) and was coined in the early 1990s by the late Jack Duganne (1942–2020), a pioneering Master Printer in this printing technique.

The term refers to inkjet prints that use mineral pigments and high-quality substrates, ensuring exceptional permanence. While every giclée print is inkjet, very few inkjet prints meet true giclée standards.

Laboratory studies indicate over 200 years of resistance to fading under ideal conditions (dark storage, 22.7 °C, 50% RH) and approximately 86 years when displayed under glass. With ongoing advances in ink technology, these timeframes are expected to become even more impressive.

Giclée (or Fine Art) printing allows artists to reproduce their work with fidelity, without resorting to mass industrial production that is impersonal and lacks long-term durability characteristics.
