Info
Fabriano 5 is an exceptionally smooth paper made by the Italian company Fabriano. This paper is surface-sized and watermarked with the Fabriano logo. Fabriano 5 paper is mould-made from 50% cotton and 50% carefully selected raw materials. The absence of acid guarantees excellent permanence and resistance to ageing.
This paper is designed for watercolour painting and lithography printing, but can also be used for tempera, charcoal, graphite, wax, and pastel. It is an immensely popular product with watercolour artists and printmakers alike.
In 2016, Fabriano 5 paper was changed permanently because of adjustments to the machine that makes it. The surface texture is a bit less smooth and the sizing has altered slightly. The manufacturer does not believe the change is significant; they feel the paper is still within their allowed parameters. However, a number of artists have found the change significant enough that it interferes with their work. They are usually artists who make very precise work and need to be able to control fine lines such as botanical artists using watercolour or coloured pencil.
Since we have made customers aware of the changes to this paper, please be aware that if you wish to return the paper to us you will need to pay the postage costs for the return.
