One look at Hahnemühle's new Toned Watercolor Book and we were in love. The first thing you'll notice is the hardcover format, covered in water-resistant waxed linen and finished with a red ribbon and color-coordinated elastic closure. It's a highly portable package designed for making sketches wherever you are and keeping your work protected from dirt, dust, and moisture. And we think its understated beauty speaks for itself.

The German-made cold press watercolor paper in these books is highly versatile and well-suited to a wide range of watercolor and drawing techniques. Colors lift easily from the paper, thanks to the sizing applied to this paper. The grain pattern is pronounced enough to make your landscapes look organic, but a fountain pen will still move smoothly across the surface.

Finally, these watercolor books contain uniquely toned paper: in this case, a warm, earthy tan that's ideal for landscape painting and afternoon light. You'll be able to realize complete, satisfying sketches more quickly since the background is already a gorgeous midtone.

Each Toned Watercolor Book contains 30 sheets (60 pages when using both sides) of 200 gsm watercolor paper. Available in multiple sizes. Made in Germany.

We also stock the Hahnemühle Toned Watercolor Book in cool grey.
