Bumble Bee

Bumble Bee is one of 4 designs from Papers 5; a collection of block printed papers, produced in the traditional manner using only our finest water based paints. The Napoleonic bee signifies the French worker and the design was originally found in Josephine Bonaparte‘s boudoir, as a silk fabric. The 7 Farrow & Ball coloured grounds are traditionally trough and brush applied before the design is block printed. The 4 designs are drawn from existing Farrow & Ball blocks used in restoration of great British houses.

Bumble Bee

All Farrow & Ball papers are stain resistant and washable. Due to the nature of the process each piece of paper will be individual and slight differences will occur. This is intended and is the hallmark of traditional paper.
