The special feature of this fine art paper is the subtle pearl sheen after printing the picture. When touched, FineArt Smooth Pearl paper gives the feeling of holding matte paper but unlike the matte paper, this paper gives the picture a fine degree of sharpness. The paper is acid-free because it is made with Alpha Cellulose, which contributes to the paper’s longevity. With a glossy surface, the paper has a large color gamut and is suitable for both color and black and white printing. The surface is slightly textured, making the details look vivid.
