Fotospeed Argyrotype Kit

Product Description

Argyrotype returns the photographer to first principles - using a silver-based sensitising solution coated onto quality art paper. Exposure by natural sunlight (a UV light source may be used as an alternative. We have found that even on a cloudy day, the best exposures are made using natural daylight) development in water and fixation using a simple hypo solution. Argyrotype prints are brown and warm-toned, giving good contrast and midtone definition. Being silver-based, they can then be toned and dyed as they would have been in the early days. All images are made by the contact system, where the image depends on a negative of the appropriate size.

The Kit comes with everything needed to make Argyrotype prints. It contains 5 sheets of A4 Fabriano5 HP paper, 5 sheets of A4 Digital contact film, a 2ml syringe, a 50ml bottle of Argyrotype sensitiser, a foam coating brush, 140gms of Hypo Crystals, protective gloves, and detailed instructions for use.
