Ancient Linen Calligraphy Xuan Paper
£15.47 – £129.43
This is fine 49 gsm paper, in 70 * 138 cm. Linen fibre is added in the paper’s raw materials and the paper is yellowish.
It is suitable for calligraphy since the paper ‘bites’ ink very well. The paper itself is raw paper but it shows effects of ‘half-cooked’ Xuan paper.
Available in pack sizes:
- 10 sheets (0.48kg net weight)
- 25 sheets half-width 34.5 * 130 cm (0.59kg net weight)
- 25 sheets (1.12kg net weight)
- 50 sheets (2.36kg net weight)

Specially handmade paper with traditional recipes. This paper is added with natural linen. Although it is not sized, it shows natural half-cooked effects. We would recommend this for calligraphy purposes because this paper absorbs, or we say ‘bites ink’ in Chinese, very well.
The paper’s colour is natural yellow beige and is not chemically modified. It shows a natural aged appearance.

Beautiful paper. Packaging was very careful. Thank you very much!

1er rouleau de papier reçu aujourd’hui (plus d’une semaine en avance, bravo !). Ce papier “corn silk” est magnifique et je vais le tester dès demain avec une petite calligraphie en herbe folle.

The quality of this paper is also very high and it looks perfect. It is very good for pasting of the back. Although, because of the lower grammage you need to have good manipulation skills.
-
This paper is so beautiful. I am very pleased with my order. It was shipped promptly and securely. I would buy again from this INKSTON Etsy shop.

The Ancient Linen is very different but amazing quality – so much better than the ‘bark’ papers I have bought before in the UK. I think it will work very well for landscape and calligraphy.

Exactly as described and produces better then any in its class.

5 stars.

This is a very fine, exceptional paper to work with. The paper behaves in a different way from Xuan paper and is a delight to paint on. I will be buying several more rolls of this excellent, very high quality paper in future.
