Jane Churchill - New 2016 collection

Jane Churchill has built an international reputation for creating fresh designs specifically intended to work together to produce a wide range of looks, both contemporary and traditional. This is a promotional card for the new season's collection from the Jane Churchill collection.

The card features Holmewood, a wonderfully patterned embroidered stripe with a Suzani inspired design.
The 2pp cards are A5 (210x148mm) portrait and are printed on our Omnia 280gsm. They are printed CMYK offset litho with a special pantone grey on the reverse The colour reproduction is strong and vivid and the whole invitation has a matt, tactile look and feel.
Please just take the time to click on the image below and hopefully you'll be able to appreciate just how sharp the reproduction is...

Colefax and Fowler Collection

I've written many posts on this blog which includes the phrase "...just the cover makes the difference!" None of the previous posts can compare with the cover on this superb piece of literature.
The cover alone is quite simply stunning. It has the most amazing embossing which is present over the entire front and back cover. This fine piece of embossing just exudes quality and is a fine introduction to the wallpapers, fabrics and trimmings in the collection.
The size of the publication is 280x220mm, portrait and is saddle stitched. The 4pp cover is simply hot foil blocked in matt white foil and beautifully embossed on our Colorset Dark Grey 350gsm (which is also 100% recycled). The 20pp text is printed on 150gsm "house silk".
 
Hopefully you will be able to see from the images below just how crisp, detailed and deep the embossing is.
The embossing is based on one of the new collections in the Colefax and Fowler range called "Sinclair". This fabric design has been redrawn and reinterpreted to works as an embossed finish and it has translated delightfully.
The text pages certainly don't disappoint, with beautiful room settings and photography.
The below image shows the full extent of the emboss over the front and back cover.

This image below shows the cover from the inside and hopefully you can make out the depth of the embossing.
I hope I have done this piece of literature justice. Colefax and Fowler are renowned for epitomising the very best of English style. Investing in printed publications of this quality demonstrates a confidence and belief in their brand which will surely ensure their longevity.
