Coated Metalpoint Paper

Product Review (submitted on 28 January 2018):

I bought the mixed pack to experiment with as I am new to metalpoint drawing. It is clearly well coated and takes the mark from silverpoint and other metal stylus points very well. The heavier paper feels good and I liked the cream colour of that particular paper. My only hesitation, and my reason for giving it a 4 rather than a 5 overall, is that the website lists the paper as not being archival. This is a shame and I get the feeling that there are more people now interested in metalpoint drawing. In the USA ready made high quality supports treated with an abrasive ground are available. Maybe this is a small market opportunity. Delivery was prompt and secure.
