We have been working on the design of the store pages.A few weeks ago we updated the look of the homepage to show images and brief descriptions of the main shopping sections of the website. We also added a right-hand column, which showed links to this blog, Twitter and Facebook plus a form to sign-up to our mailing list.This new look has been applied to all the store pages. So the sections have become a bit more visual and the social network links are present on most pages. There is still a bit of tidying up to do and a few more images are needed to complete the job.

We have had difficulties in getting new stock of the Character High White Wove paper. It transpires that the mill who originally produced the paper closed. The Character paper is now manufactured in another mill. However, they no longer produce the “high White” colour. They only produce the paper in a “Brilliant White”.Character Brilliant White Paper

Many of you will know we have been out of Kolner Miniatum and Miniatum Ink for some time now. Our UK supplier had decided not to stock it any longer due to a big price increase and large minimum order. Since the Autumn I have been contacting the manufacturer but with limited success. However, we have now managed to get a deal with them and I’m pleased to say it is once more in stock.I would like to thank those of you who contacted the manufacturer directly asking them if the Kolner will become available again in the UK.Buy Kolner Miniatum Ink

This Gilders Tip measures 87.5mm and is made from pure squirrel hair. It is for picking up loose gold leaf from a Gilders Cushion or direct from the booklet and applying it to the size. The brush is either wiped on the nose or through your hair to collect a little grease. The leaf of gold attaches itself to the brush when it is gently pressed on it.Visit our Gilders Equipment section
