For the love of stationary With a mix of traditional bookbinding, the finest of papers and exclusive patterns, Papp Limited creates beautiful stationary dressed in textile for the safekeeping of memories, treasures and notes. Swedish brand Papp Limited began with a love of paper and traditional bookbinding back in 2011. Owner and graphic designer Camilla Larsson creates timeless, high-quality, designed products such as books, albums, folders, binders and boxes – individually made from the finest of papers, durable fabrics and other sustainable materials – in close collaboration with a traditional and wellrespected bookbindery. “This is a new and small company, but with classic products made by hand,” says Larsson. Based in the textile hub Borås, Papp Limited works with new and established Swedish designers including Emelie Ek, Tina Backman and Emma von Brömssen. The stationery is covered with creative textile patterns such as Harlequin, Field in green and blue, and modern illustrations,
or kept in one of the standard colours such as sand, olive green and ocean blue. Some products come with gold embossing to suit a particular purpose – for example recipes, memories and garden – and new products appear in limited editions from time to time. The paper comes from the Swedish woods, and any waste products are recycled and converted into other items including small notepads and postcards. Made in Sweden, this is beautiful stationary for safekeeping of memories, treasures and other beautiful things, or for those important scribbles with thoughts and dreams for the future. In addition to her stationary brand, Larsson also runs Linnefabriken with exclusive textile products such as bath towels, robes and pillows made from 100 per
