About our paper
Traditional papermaking
for modern creativity
Perfectly suited for calligraphy and printing, our handmade paper can make any invitation, correspondence, or dining suite feel organic and timeless. Our versatile range of 7 sizes and 14 shades, accompanied by our matching envelopes, cover all occasions, all year-round.
Made from 100% cotton
Off-cuts of unused pure white cotton fabric are sourced from the local textile industry in south India to make our paper. Sorted, chopped, and then beaten with water to open the fine cotton fibres, the resulting pulp is lifted into sheets of paper by hand on a mould and deckle. Cotton paper is known for its strength, crispness, luxurious texture, and durability with mixed media. Ours is made from nothing else.
"For calligraphers planning on writing on this paper with a nib and ink, I would definitely recommend"
For calligraphy, printing & watercolour
Our paper receives favourable commendations from professional ink-artisans, printers, letterpress-makers, and artists across the globe. For calligraphers, the internal sizing and finish of our pieces provide a fine-tooth, making the texture nib-friendly, even on the up-stroke. Printing is a breeze, either via a modern inkjet at home, screen, or on a vintage letterpress with our thicker grade of pieces. Brush strokes of light watercolour are effortless too.
Invitations, correspondence, & dining suites
Be it for a Big Day, personalised stationery, or the perfect meal, our paper and envelopes add an delicate, organic, and timeless touch to proceedings. Our range of sizes are perfect for invitation suites featuring RSVPs and detail cards, as well as dining suites with place cards and menus. Not forgetting your own personal stationery, with our range of four envelopes sizes too.
"Stunning handmade paper. Can't wait to use it for our wedding invitations"
Handmade in India, shipped worldwide
Age-old hand-papermaking techniques bring our paper to life. Starting as off-cuts of pure white cotton from the textile industry in south India, the fibres of the cotton material are beaten to create pulp which is then lifted into paper – by hand. Also by hand is the picking and preparation of each online order, despatched direct to you either via DHL Express Worldwide or regular post.
