Additional Information

Materials Information	Silk Silk-coated paper that’s sleek to the touch. It has a slight sheen to it which gives your print a vibrant and crisp appearance but softer than full high-shine gloss. Fully writable with a ball point pen. Uncoated This is classic printer paper. It has a rougher texture than our coated stocks, which means it’s perfect for writing on as it is more porous and quickly absorbs ink for a dry, smudge-free finish. Invercote A thick, luxurious card that combines a semi matt silk cover with an uncoated matt back making it ideal for writing on.
