Langton Watercolour Paper Block Cold Press

The Langton Watercolour Paper Block Cold Press by Daler-Rowney is a trusted choice for artists seeking reliable, professional-grade paper. Each block includes 12 sheets of 300gsm acid-free paper, traditionally mould-made in England using wood-free pulp. As a result, the paper offers excellent surface stability, making it ideal for wet-in-wet techniques, layering, and lifting.

Moreover, the cold-pressed texture provides a subtle tooth that enhances pigment granulation while remaining smooth enough for controlled brushwork. Because the block is glued on all four sides, it eliminates the need for stretching—allowing you to paint directly without warping or buckling. This feature is especially useful for plein air painting or studio work where time and convenience matter.

Additionally, Langton paper is colour-stable, fungicide-treated, and alkaline buffered, which helps preserve your artwork over time. Artists appreciate its responsiveness to watercolour, gouache, ink, and dry media such as pencil and pastel. Whether you’re creating expressive washes or detailed illustrations, this block supports a wide range of techniques with confidence.
