ANTIQUE LINING PAPERS
A range of low cost, hand printed papers devised for bookbinding and the general paper crafts.
The patterns and designs are copies of, or influenced by patterned, decorative papers found in books made from the 1600s and onwards including French Papiers Dominotes, Italian woodblock prints and German Buntpapier.
ALPs are printed from hand cut lino blocks in one or two colours on antique, handmade text printed papers. Various printmaking techniques are employed including standard relief print, paste printing and stenciling.
ALPS XL are large format, single colour lino prints made on tinted (hand painted) contemporary machine-made paper.
These papers can be used for a variety of purposes including bookbinding and box making, furniture decoration, interior design projects, picture framing and the general paper crafts.
