It is now common knowledge that Fabriano is where Western paper making began. Ever since, the mill hasn’t ceased to innovate, from the creation of the watermark in 1282 to the invention of sizing. Today, all paper mills specialized in fine art paper still use rabbit skin glue as sizing, except one. Fabriano indeed likes to be one step ahead. A few years ago, the mill invented a non-animal sizing to avoid the undesirable smell while improving the performance of the paper in regards to paint. Today Fabriano enhance the value of its “Artistico” paper thanks to an enhanced quality and a presentation appropriate to its reputation. Here are the highlights of this paper: improved surface sizing, stronger surface, 4 deckled-edges, fixed-point watermark, Vegan Friendly product. Artistico is available in 2 shades of white: Traditional and Extra White, both without bleaches or optical brighteners, 4 surfaces: satin, soft grain, fine grain, coarse grain. • Mould-made 100% cotton paper
