Claire W. ★★★★★

I’ve been using this darkroom paper for my fine art prints and the base is noticeably more rigid than my last batch, which helps keep the paper flat during processing. The tonal range on the glossy surface is incredibly deep and smooth.

Ruby T. ★★★★★

The glossy finish really makes my prints pop — the blacks are deep and the highlights stay pure white. I appreciate how consistent each sheet is from box to box.

Grace ★★★★★

I've been printing on this paper for years and the deep blacks with that true glossy fiber base never disappoint. The 12x16 size is perfect for my medium format negatives and the toning response is beautifully consistent.
