Somerset: Finest Printmaking Paper from St Cuthberts Mill
Somerset is a world-renowned printmaking paper. It is celebrated for its softness, strength, and versatility. Somerset Printmaking Paper is made using traditional mould-made techniques and a blend of craftsmanship and innovation. It is made at St Cuthberts Mill in England, which is a site with a papermaking history dating back to the 1700s.
Somerset paper is made from 100% cotton and meets high archival standards. This makes it ideal for professional artists and printmakers. Its gentle surface texture and flexible nature allow it to take ink beautifully and conform smoothly to the surface of the plate when damp. This helps to achieve clean and consistent results. The paper remains flat after printing and is built to last, offering durability to finished editions.

Somerset paper is suitable for a wide variety of techniques. This includes relief printing, intaglio, etching, letterpress, lithography, silkscreen, embossing, pastel, charcoal, and more. Somerset is also available as a fine art inkjet paper . This provides artists with an authentic, mould-made paper that is perfect for digital printing.
No matter what you’re printing, Somerset gives you a strong, high quality surface that blends papermaking tradition with the creative needs of modern artists.
