A stunning new addition to our calligraphy practice papers, this new Dark Calligraphy Practice Pad is perfect for metallic and white inks. We recommend our FineTec metallic inks which you can buy indivicualy or as part of our Finetec kits. If you're looking for a wonderfully opaque white to use, Dr Ph Martin’s Pen White Ink stands out beautifully on this paper.

With a beautifully foiled, cool gold cover, the pad contains 3 different shades of dark tones: Imperial Blue, Slate and Racing Green. Each colour comes as x 6 letterpress printed practice sheets and x 6 plain pages.

Practice your letterforms on the letterpress practice lines, delicately printed in subtle white ink. Then use the plain sheets in the second half of the pad to create your own artwork.

36 pages in total. Delicately printed letterpress practice lines on half the pad (x 6 printed pages of each colour). Plain colour pages in the second half (x6 plain pages of each colour). Each sheet folds once to fit a 7x5" envelope, such as our Marvellous Envelopes.

All our products are illustrated, designed, and printed in house at Meticulous Ink, Bath, UK. Each practice pad has been lovingly letterpress and foil printed in cool gold on a 1960 Heidelberg Windmill using only the finest oil-based inks. Each pad is collated, cut, and glue-bound by hand by our tiny team.
