Arteina Professional Drypoint Set

The Arteina Professional Drypoint SET is a carefully presented collection of four high-quality drypoint tools designed for traditional printmakers and artists working directly onto metal plates. Drypoint is a direct and expressive intaglio technique in which lines are scratched into the plate surface, creating a characteristic burr that holds ink and produces rich, textured marks with deep blacks and dynamic tonal variation.

The set includes four different drypoint tips - 2mm, 3mm, 5mm, and a Long Tip - giving artists a versatile selection for creating lines and marks with varying levels of weight, texture, and detail. Each tool features a Ø12mm beech wooden handle, a rectified steel ferrule, and a tempered, hand-polished drypoint tip, providing excellent control and a comfortable grip for precise and expressive work.

Proudly made in Barcelona, Spain, the tools are presented in a practical wooden case that keeps the complete set organised and protected between uses. A duster cloth is also included for cleaning and caring for the tools, making this a complete and thoughtfully presented set for artists exploring or practising the traditional drypoint printing process.
