Information
Clairefontaine Kraft Pads are made within the Clairefontaine paper mill in Meurthe, France. The pads contain 60 pages of long natural unbleached virgin fibres, making this paper 100% natural and bio-degradable. It is also PEFC certified from sourced, recyclable materials so it is very eco-friendly and has a unique mechanical strength and flexibility. The sheets are pH neutral and acid-free. Each page is 90gsm and is great for charcoal, pencils and all dry media. The paper has a laid surface making it smooth on one side and then ribbed on the other (this provides a slightly corrugated feel), this side is also matt with a slight sheen. The sheets are double sided, with one being the characteristic colour of Kraft paper (brown) and the other being an intense black.
The Clairefontaine Kraft Pad is cut-edge which provides a clean edge to the paper. The cover is paperback with a cardboard back to provide a harder surface to work on. The bind is glued in and produces a straight edge when ripped out of the pad; it can also open-flat. This book is thick and a great accessory for mixed-media.
We recommend that this sketchpad is perfect for dry art techniques and works especially well with charcoal and pencil. Because it is 90gsm it is a light weight and won’t take watercolour or any other similar wet technique well and the paper could easily buckle. We would suggest any dry medium that can be used for sketching but can also be used for things such as acrylic because the paper is very resistant.
