The premium stationary brand Papier has teamed up with the Metropolitan Museum of Art to create the exclusive new Papier x The Met collection.
The new stationary collection draws on the Art Nouveau movement with illustrator and author Margaret Neilson Armstrong’s book covers as the main inspiration. The result is stationary with abstracted shapes and gouache prints that are made entirely by hand. As Chief Product Officer Molly Park explains, "With motifs from the natural world – lush plants, creeping vines and fluid florals – these covers create worlds of their own, reflecting the freedom of the Art Nouveau movement we paired this with other historical references to come up with our collection."
With options including daily and mid-year planners and lined notebooks, the Papier x The Met collection truly is a work of art.
