Ilford Galerie Smooth Cotton Rag A3 (25 ورقة) 310 gsm

The texture of these 100% cotton sheets is exactly what I want for gallery prints—that smooth, fourdriner-made surface holds detail beautifully while still feeling handmade. A3 is the perfect size for my portfolio pieces, and at 310gsm they’ve got substantial heft without curling.

I’ve been using these sheets for my monochrome prints and the 310 gsm weight gives them a sturdy, archival feel without being stiff. The smooth cotton surface renders subtle shadow details beautifully, which is exactly what I needed.

The paper's surface has a lovely, subtle texture that really makes inkjet prints pop without glare. I used it for a black and white landscape series and the tonal gradations came out beautifully.
