Legion Paper Stonehenge Paper Description
Legion Paper manufactures Stonehenge from 100% cotton rag, creating a neutral pH sheet that maintains archival stability across decades. The 250 gsm weight, roughly equivalent to 140 lb stock, provides substantial body without becoming rigid or difficult to handle. Machine production ensures consistent surface texture and fiber distribution, critical when printing editions or working across multiple sheets.
That fine, even grain accepts both wet and dry media with equal confidence. Printmakers rely on it for etching and silkscreen work, where uniform ink absorption prevents blotching and maintains crisp detail registration. Drawing media from graphite to charcoal layer smoothly without the surface breaking down under repeated mark-making. Two deckle edges add traditional papermaking character to finished pieces, particularly effective when mounting work with visible borders.
The substantial weight handles moderate water application during printmaking processes while maintaining dimensional stability. Whether pulling proofs, developing drawings, or experimenting with mixed techniques, this paper responds predictably, the kind of dependable performance that keeps artists returning to the same sheet specification for years.
