Today’s article is all about the Deckle Edge. A piece of papermaking tradition. A look and feel from the old world. A paper with a soft feathered edge – the exclusive deckle edge.
Hahnemühle offers three of its Digital FineArt paper grades with a deckle edge: Photo Rag® 308 gsm, William Turner 310 gsm and Museum Etching 350 gsm. These papers for the professional digital FineArt printing have the look and feel of a traditional artist paper with original deckle edges. They give every float-framed print a special touch. Many artists, such as Richard Beland like the fringed edge and see it as an important part for their artistic statement.
But do you know how a deckle edge is formed/ created and what makes it such a specialty paper, nowadays? If you cannot answer this question with a YES, why not scroll down and check out today’s article. We give you a short explanation with just five sentences. It is worth the read!
Do not miss your chance to win a A3+ box filled with one of our latest paper innovations. Just figure out the five words hidden in our letter salad in our article about our Green Rooster Initiative. Good luck!
Are paper sample packets available for your fine art paper line…such as the deckled edge papers, etc. Can you supply me with a site to connect to view these papers and their textures, etc.? The majority of my current work is best presented on papers such as you are offering.
Thank you,
