Warm Valentine's wishes from Parvum Opus!

We're getting ready for a new batch of stunning papers to arrive in the bindery from around the world. Even while winter lingers, it looks like spring in the workroom with these new colorful additions. We look forward to sharing the resulting new works!

Happy New Year!

Warm New Year wishes from Parvum Opus! It's been much too long since I've treated myself to the pleasant task of posting here to share the latest news from the bindery. It's been a cheerfully chaotic couple of months at Parvum Opus, with new projects, new tools, new bindery assistants, and a new online shop.

With so much going on in the bindery, I thought it might be nice to begin this year's posts by sharing some recent projects with you today. All of the materials you see in these designs were chosen by our wonderful clientele. Often it happens that we source materials for a bespoke project and end up so smitten by a color or pattern that we add it to our permanent collection.

Each year we add to our palette of papers and book cloth colors, and it's great fun for us to see how cleverly clients combine them.

No detail is too small! Inspired by the great designer Roger Banks-Pye
and the desire to use every scrap of gorgeous paper, we've added
these playful matchboxes to our range of products.  

At this moment, our bindery's book presses are full of more projects that I will be happy to share very soon. I'm very grateful to have had the privilege of working on interesting projects with so many charming and creative people from all over North America and the UK last year, and we're looking forward to continuing our fulfilling work this year. I hope that 2014 brings health, friendship and joy for all of you.
