CAMBRIDGE IMPRINT SMALL WRAPPING PAPER | CHARLESTON ROUNDEL

Charleston Roundel is one of three patterns designed by Cambridge Imprint in 2019 for the Charleston Trust. Charleston was the Sussex farmhouse of Vanessa Bell and Duncan Grant, and frequently served as temporary home to other members of their Bloomsbury circle during the first half of the twentieth century. The house is filled with the paintings and sculptures of the two artists, but Bell and Grant also decorated every surface of the house, the walls, doors, and furniture. Even the rugs, lampshades, bowls and plates were of their own devising.  The three patterns aim to conjure the glorious colour and painterly exuberance of the Charleston interiors.

Cambridge Imprint paper is printed in England on FSC paper of archiving quality, using vegetable oil-based inks that are kind to the environment.

Each sheet is printed in one or two hand-mixed inks on uncoated 90 gsm stock to create a high-quality matte paper with a hand-printed feel to it.

The papers are 30 x 41 cm, the perfect size for wrapping books and other small presents.
