Jackson’s Eco Watercolour Paper
Our very own eco-friendly 100% cotton, internally & externally gelatine sized, deckle edged handmade paper from India.
The machinery normally used to make paper uses a lot of energy, turning paper pulp into a giant roll of perfectly dry paper in barely a minute. Our handmade papers however are made from recycled cotton, individually set into the moulds and then dried slowly in the Indian sun. The water used in the production is then run off to irrigate the field neighbouring the factory. This paper is also at an unbeatable price.
Available in three weights: 140, 200 and 560lb and in three surface textures: smooth/medium, medium/rough and extra rough.
An extra special feature: because this paper is made in special small moulds the 1/4 and 1/2 sheets are deckled on all four sides – they are only available in the 140lb & 200lb papers.
On offer: 20% off the regular discounted price until April 19th

I can’t seem to find out how much the ECO Smooth/Medium paper in the 200lbs weight is. Also, how does it compare with normal hot pressed paper.

Thank you .
Hi Elva
I’m sorry it wasn’t clear. You just need to click on the underlined part that says ‘offer’ to go to the website and see the prices.

The price of the 200lb paper depends on the size of the sheets, it comes in full, 1/2 and 1/4 sheets, and on the number of sheets in a pack.
Smooth/Medium texture compared to Hot Press- it is very different. The handmaking process and drying in the sun rather than pressed between hot rollers give this paper more texture. The smooth to medium texture is similar to a NOT paper, it is not like a hot pressed paper.
