Dappled is an original Cambridge Imprint design from 2019. The pattern is based on a square repeat block, with a second overprinting slightly offset like a shadow. The result has an intriguingly improvised, random quality, like old spongeware or a Jackson Pollock painting, with rhythm and consistency emerging from the chaos. Perhaps the gentlest and prettiest of all our designs. It was originally available in two colour ways, Red and Blue. Two new colours were issued in Spring 2023: Lemon Meringue Pie and Eton Mess.

Cambridge Imprint paper is printed in England on responsibly sourced paper of archiving quality, using vegetable oil-based inks that are kind to the environment. Each sheet is printed in one or two hand-mixed inks on uncoated 90 gsm stock to create a high-quality matte paper with a hand-printed feel to it.

Each sheet measures 50 cm x 70 cm.
