Books, Stationery & Art Supplies
888 entries · curated ORBIS register · 1–150 of 888
Paper is the thread of this plate. Fabriano in the Marche makes artist paper at Europe's oldest mill, and Amatruda in Amalfi makes wedding paper by hand. In Florence, Giulio Giannini e Figlio binds books and marbles paper in its sixth generation. Il Papiro and Il Torchio work in the same trade nearby, Pineider engraves stationery, and Rossi 1931 prints gift wrap. Pens come from three cities. Aurora in Turin grinds its own gold nibs, Montegrappa writes from Bassano del Grappa, and Visconti from Florence. The booksellers are here too. Libreria Bocca sits under the Galleria in Milan and Ex Libris in Rome deals in antiquarian prints. In Paris, Artazart and Cahier Central face the Canal Saint-Martin, while After 8 Books publishes critical art titles and Calligrane outfits the desk itself.
