Moulin du Roy is a 100% cotton French watercolour paper. Produced on a traditional cylinder mould machine, this paper has the look and feel of a handmade paper. Both absorbent and strong, Moulin du Roy has internal and surface sizing that permits the lifting of dried colour and the reworking of watercolour. Canson Moulin du Roy watercolour paper is naturally white, acid-free, and made entirely without bleaching agents for optimal conservation over time.
These watercolour blocks have a hot pressed surface which offers a smooth texture that is particularly suited for portraits and other more intricate techniques.
Please note: Moulin Du Roy is now produced at St Cuthberts' Mill - the paper is the same as the old formulation, just without a deckle edge or watermark.
