Clairefontaine - Ref 96775C - Ingres Pastel Paper (12 Sheets) - 24x32cm in Size, 120gsm Paper, Envelope Packet - Suitable for Use With Pastels, Charcoal & Pencil

I was very pleased with this paper, especially for the price. I’d read reviews that criticised the thickness, but I don’t understand what they’re on about: it’s good quality & thickness & of the same quality as the more expensive pastel paper I’ve bought from art shops for years. I will buy it again.

It's quite ridges, which is how it grips the pastels, but I'm not very enamoured with it. I'll keep trying it, I hear it takes a lot of layers so may keep at it.Not gonna waste it!

I use this companies paper all the time. I was not sure about this purchase. It looked great value for money but not all the reviews were great. Decided to take a punt because of the price but it is not their best quality.One sheet was creased and although I used it as a practice, it was a shame, I don't expect this from this company. Each sheet appears to have a different texture. This can be misleading when deciding the picture I wish to create. Using pastel only the textures make you work very hard. I use top of the range pastel pencils and sticks but I could not get the coverage I am use to. Using colour pencils with pastel contributes greatly to achieving the result I want. Using pencils,Polychromos, only is very good indeed, better than pastels alone.Some of thecolours are a bit unusual, but could be interesting if you choose the right subject.Unlike my other paper I doubt I would buy again.

Excellent value, good quality, mixed coloured papers suitable for my colour pencils

Soft Pastel paper good quality

It’s quite grainy which shows through. It’s difficult to use a lot of layers as tooth fills up quickly

The quality is really good. Not too thick either. Pleased with the range of colours.

Good

Correcto, cumple su función

Carta di prima qualità ma per me si è rivelato un acquisto sbagliato perché dovevo utilizzare con le matite colorate e la trama è troppo evidente per i lavori che faccio io.Però i colori sono molto belli.

Bien

Sehr gutes Papier! Ich liebe die Struktur des Papiers sowie die Farbauswahl. Auch die Dicke des Papiers ist sehr gut (ich benutze es für Collagen).

Mejor de lo que pensaba por el precio. Los he utilizado con la tecnica de tiza y no colapsa por capas que le ponga. Lleva varios colores y variás texturas, unos son lisos mientras que otros parece que lkleven como hilitos
