Excellent ink layering

This semi-sized paper allows for excellent ink layering. I used it for a national exhibition piece, and the final result had great depth. The four-foot size is standard and easy to frame.

Beautiful retro aesthetic

The ancient method plant dye creates a warm, nostalgic tone that modern white paper just cannot match. It makes my practice sessions feel more immersive. Will definitely buy again.

Authentic feel, slight color variation

As expected from handmade paper, there are slight variations in the beige color between sheets, which actually adds to the charm. The sizing is perfect for letter writing. Highly recommended for traditionalists.

Good for advanced students

I bought this for my advanced calligraphy class. The paper requires a steady hand due to its absorbency, but it rewards skill with stunning results. A few sheets had minor edge tears, but overall good quality.

Great value for handmade paper

I was skeptical about the price, but the quality is undeniable. You can feel the mulberry bark fibers. It handles wet ink very well, making it forgiving for beginners like me practicing regular script.

Perfect for competition entries

The texture of this paper is exceptional. The plant dye gives it an authentic antique look that judges love. The ink spreads beautifully without bleeding too much, ideal for my running script pieces.

5 FAQ

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

A: While primarily designed for calligraphy, the semi-sized nature and mulberry bark content allow for light watercolor washes. However, for heavy watercolor work, we recommend our fully unsized varieties.

Q: How should I store this paper to maintain its quality?

A: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. We recommend keeping it in its original packaging or wrapping it in acid-free tissue to prevent moisture absorption and dust accumulation.

Q: What is the exact thickness of the paper?

A: The paper has a traditional weight suitable for four-foot scrolls, approximately 60-70 gsm. It is thick enough to prevent show-through but thin enough to fold easily for mounting.

Q: Does the plant dye smell strong when opened?

A: There is a very faint, natural herbal scent due to the plant dye and mulberry bark, but it is not overpowering and dissipates quickly after unpacking. It contains no artificial fragrances.

Q: Can I use this for small regular script (Xiao Kai)?

A: Yes, absolutely. The surface texture is smooth enough for fine details required in small regular script, while still providing enough tooth to hold the ink securely.
