I started to collect these in 2015, having found a pile of eighteenth-century legal documents at an antiques fair. the exquisite calligraphy and embossed stamps and seals are fascinating. The bundles are beautiful objects in themselves. I use them for collage and for making decorations as in the foldout included in Issue 23 of The Stitcher’s Journal (December 2024). If you are a new subscriber, you can still access this foldout via the Inspiration Board item ‘Collaging with antique papers’.
