BLOCK / LINO PRINTING - ACCESSORY - Wooden & Felt Baren

45mm high - 53mm dia.

Made from solid & polished turned wood with a 5mm felt base.

The handle provides a comfortable and convenient tool to apply pressure to the back of inked prints during the process of relief or intaglio printmaking and felt base to avoid possible snags.

For best results work the Baren in a firm circular motion across ALL areas of the rear of the print applying consistent pressure throughout, applying pressure in this way contacts the ground/paper more thoroughly with the inked surface beneath providing better ink attachment and more consistent results across the printed area.

Any areas left untreated will look light and weak in comparison to those areas where the Baren has been worked.

Take care to avoid ink spillages as these will leach on to the felt base for future use.
