About VPCo



Hello.

Vintage Paper Co makes books, prints, bags, specialist tools and other occasional items, entirely by hand. The focus is always on quality over quantity - most of our products being one-offs, limited runs, or numbered series. 

VPCo began life in the 2000s, buying and selling antique and vintage handmade paper for fine art (hence the name).

Curiousity led us from being a simple supplier of artists' materials to becoming a leading maker of small batch, luxurious and highly desirable things.

Our passion and knowledge for beautiful paper still exists and informs the products we make. Nothing is created without the qualities and characteristics of the papers we use for a particular product being the first consideration. 

The business is based in Stromness, on an island in Orkney, about 20 miles off the northernmost coast of Scotland. We operate from a refurbished former branch of the Union Bank of Scotland, on Victoria Street.

"The Old Bank", on Victoria Street in Stromness is where we make and sell most of our products from. 

Everything we produce is made by hand in Scotland using artisan quality materials and traditional techniques. We call this Properly Made. 

Best wishes, William
Vintage Paper Co.
