  • Sketch to block

    Each design begins with hand-drawn illustrations, inspired by British wildlife, woodlands and seasonal landscapes.

  • Carved by Hand

    Using traditional tools, each designs is carved into lino with care and precision - no machines here!

  • Printed with Purpose

    Each piece is individually hand-printed with sustainable materials- cork, paper or fabric- from our Kent studio.

  • Packaged with Care

    Once dry, each unique print is signed and titled in small batches. We package using plastic-free materials perfect for sending to your home.
