Millford Watercolor Paper is a 100% cotton, mould-made sheet from St Cuthberts Mill, designed for watercolor artists who want control, durability, and consistent surface performance. #ad Because its cotton fibers are more randomly placed, the sheet remains flatter when water is applied for reduced buckling and curling during washes.
Crafted with hard sizing, Millford offers a high level of water resistance. Paint sits on the surface with a glassy sheen, giving artists more working time for wet-on-wet techniques, fluid brushwork, and controlled washes. Because less pigment sinks into the sheet, colors stay bright and luminous.
Millford also provides excellent lifting capabilities, even with staining pigments, and handles masking fluid without tearing or damaging the surface. Made archival and acid-free, it supports watercolor work that is expressive, controlled, and built to last.
