Persephone Books are now stocking my Bloomsbury bookplates in their shop on Lamb's Conduit Street, London.
When I was doing research at Charleston for my doctorate, I discovered a large number of bookplates amongst the bookshelves that members of Bloomsbury had designed and made for themselves and for each other. Each of them was so decorative and beautiful, inspiring a delight in the material qualities of the book, that I decided I wanted to make my own.
The resulting design draws inspiration from these Bloomsbury bookplate designs, as well as the domestic decorations at Charleston, and I think that they complement the publications of Persephone Books, with their gorgeous endpapers, rather nicely.
