Rohrer & Klingner Lithographic Authographic Ink is a particularly greasy ink used as a transfer ink, or for drawing in lithography or silkscreen. When it is used to transfer an image from paper to stone, it can be applied to a strongly sized, fine-grain transfer paper. This method is more convenient than working directly onto the stone and retains the texture of the paper in the final print.
Rohrer & Klingner was established in 1892 by Johann Adolf Rohrer in Leipzig, Germany, and remains one of Europe’s premier ink and tusche producers. The company boasts a fifth generation of lithography specialists and a team that has a passion for manufacturing high specification ink. Following well established recipes, each bottle of ink is produced by hand, combining naturally binding, renewable materials with the respective colourant.
