Saunders Waterford High White

 

Saunders Waterford High White is a premium watercolour paper renowned for its exceptional quality and brilliant whiteness.

Artists love how its bright white surface enhances the vibrancy of watercolour pigments and shows highlights on a subject.

Whether you're a seasoned artist or a beginner, Saunders Waterford High White offers the ideal canvas for your creations. The shade is meticulously created by our papermakers, with it being a demanding shade for them to achieve, as no OBA’s (optical brightening agents) are used to make this archival grade white.

The shade is fade resistant so artists can be confident leaving portions of the paper left unpainted, without the colour of these areas changing over time.
