Patterned Paper Animalcules | Twilight

£2.75
By Cambridge Imprint

Delicate, dotted and quietly captivating, Animalcules is a charming one-colour Cambridge Imprint design introduced in 2019. A simplified, small-scale cousin of Milky Way, it draws inspiration from 18th-century French domino papers, reimagined here with a subtle and regular motif perfect for projects that call for refinement. Its name nods to van Leeuwenhoek’s description of the tiny life-forms he first observed through a handmade microscope. Fitting for a pattern built from minute, lively detail.

Printed in England with hand-mixed vegetable-oil inks, each sheet has a soft matte quality and the tactile depth of traditional printing. An excellent choice for bookbinding and fine craft where a smaller repeating pattern excels.
