Studio Essentials : Chinese Painting : Rice Paper Roll of 8 Sheets : 300mmx1.37mtr

This fine Chinese Paper is suitable for brush writing, Chinese painting or calligraphy. It is made from mulberry bark in China using a centuries-old manufacturing process, and provides excellent quality at an affordable price for beginners and intermediates.

The paper feels somewhere between crisp and soft. It is more absorbent, rough and matt on one side and less absorbent, smoother and shinier on the other. It is a warm off white colour. The paper has lengthwise running chain lines (similar to laid lines) from the screen, but they are only visible as stripes of increased transparency; they are not raised, and you cannot feel them.

This product consists of 8 separate sheets of rice paper rolled around a cardboard tube for storage. Each sheet measures 300mm x 1.37m. The weight of the paper is 30g per square metre.
