Bockingford Watercolour NOT Fat Pads (300gsm)

Available in several sizes & finishes, these Fat Pads from Bockingford are made in England using a cylinder mould machine at St. Cuthbert's Mill, making them ideal for the watercolourist seeking both quality & affordability.

Featuring 25 sheets of cold-pressed (NOT), heavyweight watercolour paper made using only the purest materials for an archival-quality, pH neutral & 100% vegan pad.
Landscape orientated, each pad is spiral-bound for a fully flat opening, allowing access to every inch of their working surface.

Mould Made Papers
Although often mistaken for handmade papers, mould made sheets effectively simulate this through a mechanised process.
Popular amongst artists for their superior surface stability, beautiful textures & tear-resistant capabilities.

A rotating cylinder mould picks up paper stock from the vat, depositing it onto a continuously moving woollen felt.
This maintains the individual characteristics of a traditionally handmade paper whilst combining the consistency of machine made (or "fourdrinier") papers.
