An A3 sheet of hand-marbled paper, 297 x 420mm. Same process as the large size, scaled to a sheet that frames easily and slips into a portfolio. Pigment floated on a size bath, drawn into pattern by hand, transferred onto paper in a single pass.
Marbling does not repeat. The combs and rakes give Nichola some control over how the pattern develops, but the bath has its own behaviour: temperature, the age of the size, the way one colour reacts against another. Every sheet carries the trace of one particular moment on the water.
This is a working sheet rather than a display piece. Buyers use the A3 size for collage and mixed-media work, for the endpapers of hand-bound books, for matched sets behind small prints, or for cutting down into smaller decorative elements. Some people simply frame one and hang it.
The image you see in the listing is one of Nichola's sheets and is representative of her colour range and style. The exact sheet that arrives will have its own distinctive pattern.

Nichola Daunton marbles paper by hand from a north east London studio, after years on the Kent coast. Traditional float-and-comb technique, bolder colour than the form usually asks for, no two sheets the same.
