What paper weight and surface does this sketchbook have?
The paper is 270gsm (extra heavyweight) with a cold press surface. This weight and finish support both dry media like pencil and charcoal as well as wet media applications.
Is this sketchbook acid-free?
Yes. The paper is acid-free, chloride-free, and lignin-free, which means your artwork will be archival and resistant to yellowing and deterioration over time.
