Review on Meiyutang Xuan Paper (Shuan/Rice Paper) – 50 πŸ“œ Sheets for Calligraphy Painting Practice: Naturally Half Ripe (201) by Barbara Simmons

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Good paper, works best with an ink stone, not ink

Very thin paper! I knew it would be inside, but it's really fragile and easy to bend or damage, so it's best to leave the sheets in the packaging somewhere out of the blue. With this style, you want to make a stroke perfect or very light. It cannot hold western ink strongly, so using an ink stone is recommended. I really like the paper texture, it's absolutely beautiful.

Pros
  • Naturally semi-matured without chemicals. PH >= 7.5. Medium thickness, clean, strong, absorbent.
Cons
  • Damaged
