Crane Museo II

Crane & Co., the worldwide leader in 100% cotton papers, introduces new, Museo® II - the world's finest acid free, double-sided, fine art inkjet paper. Available in two weights, totally new Museo® II is made from 100% cotton fibers (the purest source of cellulose) and is buffered with calcium carbonate to prevent environmental acidification (e.g. yellowing). All Museo® II papers meet the demanding needs of the finest image makers, galleries and museums, plus Library of Congress and ISO standards for permanence.

Museo® II papers are optimized for use with pigmented inks, dye inks, quad-tone and "small gamut" inks. Because no fluorescent brighteners are used (unlike other fine art rag papers) long-term color and grayscale performance is outstanding. We believe that Museo® II papers, made right here in the U.S.A., are superior to virtually every other cotton rag inkjet paper available worldwide, including the most premium, professional brands from Europe.
