CI Peggy Angus - Medallion

Medallion is one of eight papers published by Cambridge Imprint in 2021 that recreate the patterns of the great designer, printer and educator Peggy Angus. Peggy Angus was a friend of Eric Ravilious, Tirzah Garwood, Edward Bawden and many other key figures in British art, illustration and design, who were active in the middle years of the twentieth century. She is particularly well known for her patterns which were used to decorate tiles and and to create the beautiful wallpapers that she block-printed herself by hand. To produce this pattern, a new print was taken from Angus’s original linocut. The pattern was then reproduced lithographically in matte colour, using colour ways of the sort she most favoured, and reducing the scale to suit this new medium.
Printed in the United Kingdom on FSC paper of archiving quality, using eco-friendly, vegetable oil-based inks.

Each sheet is printed in one or two custom-mixed inks on uncoated paper to create a high-quality matte paper with a hand-printed feel to it. This paper is a perfect weight for wrapping (light enough to be folded easily, but completely opaque) .
A popular choice for bookbinding, boxmaking and a variety of craft projects.
