Traditionally Treated Natural Maqhar Paper – 70 × 50 cm

Crafted using time-honored traditional methods and natural materials, this Maqhar paper is the preferred choice for serious calligraphers and Islamic artists. The traditional sizing process creates a smooth, non-absorbent surface that allows ink to glide effortlessly — producing crisp, clean strokes essential for Arabic and Persian calligraphy.

Why Calligraphers Choose Traditionally Treated Maqhar Paper

The traditional Maqhar treatment using natural starch and mineral sizing delivers ideal ink behavior on the surface. The smooth, non-absorbent finish is perfect for fine nib work and detailed scripts, preventing ink feathering so lines stay sharp and well-defined. Compatible with all calligraphy inks including reed pen, bamboo pen, and metal nib. Suitable for Arabic, Persian, Ottoman, and Diwani scripts. Natural, acid-free materials ensure archival-quality artwork.
