The Baohong Masters Watercolour Paper – Cold Pressed is an artist-grade 300gsm / 140lb watercolor paper made from high-grade 100% cotton using the traditional cylinder mould process. It is acid free, chlorine free, pH neutral and archival, with natural gelatin sizing that helps the paper respond consistently to water and pigment. Its natural white tone contains no optical brighteners, allowing the true character of your watercolor pigments to remain balanced and natural.
The cold pressed surface has a subtle, controlled texture that makes it exceptionally versatile. It offers enough tooth to enhance granulation and washes, while remaining smooth enough for fine details, controlled brushwork and cleaner edges. It is an excellent choice for artists who want one surface capable of handling both loose washes and more precise watercolor techniques.
