Why to Choose Giclee Fine Art Papers to Print Your Photographs

We believe in print and we believe in quality. Our Giclee Fine Art Papers are made with high-quality archival inks on a high-resolution large format inkjet printer. These fine art papers were carefully chosen based on their look, feel and longevity.

Giclee fine art paper is made from cotton rag and is often acid-free. The papers typically have more of a matte finish as well as some sort of texture giving them a three-dimensional look. They are also thicker and heavier than most photo papers and offer different degrees of color and contrast. Let’s take a look at the differences among the three new papers.

LOW TEXTURE – Bamboo 290

Matt FineArt – smooth
290 gsm, 90% Bamboo fiber, 10% Cotton, natural white

This is the world’s first digital Fine Art Inkjet paper made from 90% bamboo fibers and 10% cotton. It lends itself best to warm-toned color and monochrome prints and has a smooth finish.

Best Uses: Photographic and fine art reproduction complying with highest archival standards, digital art, black & white and color photography, limited edition prints, presentation prints for display purposes and exhibitions, albums, greeting cards etc.

Medium Texture – Albrecht Durer 210

Matt FineArt – textured
210 gsm, 50% Cotton, 50% a-Cellulose, white, mold-made

A traditional watercolor paper that brings an artistic feel to any image. It is white, 50% cotton, 50% a-cellulose paper – guarantees archival standards. The mold-made watercolor paper features a distinct textured surface. It has more of a texture than the Bamboo but less than the William Turner 310, it’s the perfect go-between.
