Authentic ancient special pure bark

The label says 'Ancient Special Pure Bark' and it lives up to the name. The color is naturally warm, not bleached white, which creates a beautiful vintage aesthetic for letter writing and classical poetry.

Exceptional quality for sutra copying

The texture of this Xuan paper is incredible. The blend of mulberry and sandalwood bark gives it just the right amount of resistance for small regular script. The semi-processed surface allows for precise ink control without bleeding.

True master grade material

You can immediately feel the difference compared to machine-made papers. The fiber length is excellent, and the paper has a wonderful resilience when wet. Highly recommended for serious practitioners.

Perfect for national exhibition prep

I bought this specifically for preparing pieces for a local calligraphy exhibition. The antique look adds so much character to the work. It feels authentic and handles running script beautifully.

Forgiving for learners

As someone still learning running script, I appreciate how this semi-processed paper doesn't absorb ink too quickly. It gives me a split second to adjust my stroke, which has helped improve my technique significantly.

Great paper, slight variation in thickness

Overall a fantastic product. Since it is handmade, there are very slight variations in thickness between sheets, which is actually a sign of authenticity. Just be mindful when mounting large pieces.

5 FAQ

Q: Is this paper suitable for heavy ink washes or just fine line work?

A: This semi-processed paper is primarily designed for fine line work, small regular script, and running script. While it can handle moderate ink loads, it is not ideal for heavy ink washes typical of large freehand painting.

Q: Can this paper be used for mounting directly without backing?

A: Due to its handmade nature and semi-processed state, we recommend mounting this paper onto a backing board or silk for long-term preservation and display, especially for exhibition pieces.

Q: Does the sandalwood bark give the paper a scent?

A: Yes, there is a very subtle, natural woody aroma due to the sandalwood bark content. It is not overpowering and tends to fade over time as the paper is exposed to air.

Q: How many sheets are included in one standard bundle?

A: A standard bundle of this 4ft Master Grade paper typically contains 100 sheets. Please check your specific order confirmation for exact quantities as bulk discounts may vary packaging.

Q: What is the shelf life if stored properly?

A: If stored in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and pests, this high-bark content Xuan paper can last for decades without significant degradation. Many collectors store it for years before use.
