What to know before buying
Listing details to confirm
The listing conflicts on paper weight: the title and feature copy say 140lb/300gsm, while the technical detail gives “69” without a unit. It also gives differing overall dimensions. Treat these details as unresolved and confirm the selected listing if weight or package dimensions are important. The 50% cotton and acid-free properties are listing claims, not independently confirmed here.
Who is it for?
A good fit for
- Watercolour students, hobbyists and artists wanting loose cold-press sheets for practice or smaller projects.
- Buyers who prefer a multi-bag supply of paper for wet-brushing and wet-on-wet techniques.
Less suited to
- Buyers who need a confirmed paper weight or overall package dimensions before purchasing.
- Artists specifically looking for bound or pad-format paper.

Customer feedback describes the paper positively for quality and perceived value, including for quick projects, but reports differing views on durability. That makes the feedback relevant to practice and short-term work, while buyers planning more demanding projects may want to weigh the durability uncertainty. The listing's stated 300gsm weight could help assess suitability, but its technical details conflict on paper weight.

Frequently asked questions
How many sheets are included?
The listing states 60 sheets and describes them as three bags of 20.
What weight is the paper?
The title and feature text state 140lb/300gsm, but the technical detail lists the value “69” without a unit. The weight is therefore inconsistent in the listing and should be confirmed.
Is this paper suitable for wet-on-wet watercolour?
The listing says it can be used for wet-on-wet painting, along with wet brushing and dry brushing.
Are the sheets acid-free?
The listing describes the paper as acid-free. This is a manufacturer claim rather than an independent verification.
