John Frederick William Herschel 

We are pleased to announce a new development in the search for improved quality of the Alternative Photography process papers.

 A new paper, HERSCHEL, in recognition of the innovation of these processes by this great 19th century scientist has been developed and extensively tested by Dr Mike Ware. 

The paper is made from 100% pure linen instead of cotton, is even more archivally sound and the improved strength of the surface and sheet in general has been found to greatly improve particle retention.

This linen paper sheet has much greater resilience and wet strength than cotton papers, not withstanding its moderate weight of 200 gsm.
