I used it in a drawing class and it was excellent. Our instructor shared that this brand and style of paper is as good as it gets. I’ll buy Strathmore forever. Review: Great addition to any art enthusiast - Whether you’re a seasoned pro or just starting your art journey, the Strathmore 400 Series Toned Gray Sketch Pad is one of those rare supplies that immediately changes how you think about drawing. It is a staple on my desk for several reasons. Why This Paper Is a Game Changer The Mid-Tone Magic: Starting with a cool gray background instead of a blinding white one does half the work for you. Since the paper acts as your "middle value," you only have to focus on adding your darkest shadows and brightest highlights. The Perfect "Tooth": The surface texture is smooth enough for fine detail work but has just enough grit (tooth) to grab onto graphite, colored pencils, and charcoal without it sliding around. Pop Your Highlights: This is where the paper shines. Using a white charcoal pencil or a white gel pen on this gray surface creates an incredible 3D effect that you just can't achieve on white paper. Sustainable Quality: It’s 100% recycled (containing 30% post-consumer fiber), yet it feels premium and acid-free, so your sketches won't yellow or degrade over time. ## Features - Strathmore toned sketch paper pad- this sketch paper is ideal for light and Dark media - This item is manufactured in United States - Strathmore toned sketch paper pad- this sketch paper is ideal for light and dark media - This item is manufactured in united states ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B008D2TV70 | | Best Sellers Rank | #6,952 in Arts, Crafts & Sewing ( See Top 100 in Arts, Crafts & Sewing ) #122 in Sketchbooks & Notebooks | | Brand | Strathmore | | Brand Name | Strathmore | | Color | Toned Gray | | Customer Reviews | 4.8 out of 5 stars 11,331 Reviews | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00012017412219 | | Item Dimensions L x W | 14"L x 11"W | | Item Type Name | 400 Series Sketch | | Item Weight | 0.42 kg | | Manufacturer | STRATHMORE | | Material | Paper | | Material Type | Paper | | Paper Dimensions | 11x14 inches | | Paper Finish | Smooth | | Paper Weight | 80 | | Product Dimensions | 14"L x 11"W | | Recommended Uses For Product | Sketching | | Sheet Count | 20 | | UPC | 012017412219 | | Unit Count | 1 Count | | Warranty Description | No Warranty | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Strathmore - **Color:** Toned Gray - **Material:** Paper - **Paper Dimensions:** 11x14 inches - **Paper Finish:** Smooth ## Images ![400 Series Wire Bound Toned Sketch Pad, 80 lb.

Perfect size for larger drawings, but can also cut down to your required size for a drawing. Paper weight is perfect, quality is excellent it’s expensive but worth it. I primarily use pencils and charcoal. This is gray tone which I use if I want a cooler tone. There is also tan version for a warmer drawing. At this time in my artistic journey I prefer a tone paper versus white paper I’ve also purchased the 11x14 size. ## Frequently Bought Together - Strathmore 400 Series Sketch Pad, Toned Gray, 11x14 inch, 24 Sheets - Artist Sketchbook for Drawing, Illustration, Art Class Students - Strathmore 400 Series Sketch Pad, Toned Tan, 5.5x8.5 inch, 50 Sheets - Artist Sketchbook for Drawing, Illustration, Art Class Students - Strathmore 400 Series Sketch Pad, Toned Blue, 11x14 inch, 24 Sheets - Artist Sketchbook for Drawing, Illustration, Art Class Students --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sc/products/4684438-400-series-wire-bound-toned-sketch-pad-80-lb-paper](https://www.desertcart.sc/products/4684438-400-series-wire-bound-toned-sketch-pad-80-lb-paper) --- *Product available on Desertcart Seychelles* *Store origin: SC* *Last updated: 2026-08-25*
