Camel Kromelab Sketch Book | A3 | 270 GSM | 15 Sheets - Sketch & Paint

Sketch, ink and paint on thick 270 GSM sheets that take wet and dry media alike. This Camel Kromelab sketch book in A3 holds 15 unruled, perforated sheets of acid and chlorine free natural grain paper, wire bound at the top so pages lie flat and tear out cleanly.
