Ancient Linen Calligraphy Xuan Paper
$31.76 (USD)
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)

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.

Merci pour votre réponse qui me laisse cependant bien déçue car je ne pourrais travailler sur ce beau papier
Cordialement -
Ce papier répond très bien à mes attentes et offre un super rendu ; cependant je ne peux me permettre d’acheter 25 feuilles qui représentent pour moi un investissement et surtout une trop grande quantité
-
merci pour vos commentaires, nous avons essayé de vendre de plus petites quantités mais les frais de messagerie sont trop élevés pour envoyer une très petite quantité.

Great paper, it’s consistent, easy to use and control, good for both ink and color, has a very soft feel about it, very few wrinkles when used, and easy to dry mount. My favorite paper, lots of it in the roll so it’s great value.
-
Very smooth paper, large quantity!
-
Great communication beautiful written letter. just all in all what I was looking for❤️ nice thickness of the paper very well done. I could a erase and not that much fiber comes out. My ink was very well absorbed by the paper. Thank you so much❤️ I am a loyal customer. All in all great experience and great purchase.

Seems like a good, versatile practice paper. The sizing and texture make washes and drybrushing easier than on more absorbent papers I’ve used.
-
Beautiful paper. Packaging was very careful. Thank you very much!
-
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.
-
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.

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.
