Perfect for framed calligraphy projects

The mirror finish gives a unique sheen that makes the ink pop without bleeding too much. The cardboard backing is sturdy enough to frame immediately without mounting.

Excellent for students and professionals

Sanbaoyun never disappoints. The consistency between sheets is remarkable, and the mirror finish adds a modern touch to traditional ink wash paintings.

Beautiful presentation

Arrived in perfect condition thanks to the rigid packaging. The paper quality is top-tier, and the slight reflectivity enhances the depth of the black ink.

No warping issues

I was worried about the paper warping when wet, but the cardboard base holds up incredibly well. My paintings dried flat and ready for display.

Great quality but takes practice

As someone used to standard raw Xuan paper, the semi-processed nature required me to adjust my brush speed. Once I got the hang of it, the results were stunning.

Good value for the price

The pack size is generous. The surface is very smooth, which is great for fine line work, though less ideal for heavy splashing techniques.

5 FAQ

Q: What is the difference between 'Raw' and 'Semi-Processed' in this context?

A: Raw Xuan absorbs ink instantly for blurred effects. This Semi-Processed version has been treated slightly to slow absorption, allowing for more controlled lines while retaining some natural diffusion.

Q: Can I use alcohol-based inks on this surface?

A: We recommend sticking to traditional water-based sumi inks. Alcohol-based inks may react unpredictably with the mirror finish coating.

Q: Do I need to mount these sheets before framing?

A: No, the cardboard backing is rigid and thick enough to be placed directly into a standard frame without additional mounting or matting.

Q: How should I store unused sheets to prevent damage?

A: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Keep them in the original protective box or a sealed plastic bag to maintain humidity balance and prevent dust accumulation.

Q: Is this paper suitable for watercolor painting as well as ink?

A: While primarily designed for Chinese ink and calligraphy, the semi-processed surface can handle light watercolor washes. However, heavy water application may cause the cardboard to warp slightly.
