Map & slip case

We have an extensive collection of antique marbled paper dating back to c.1700. All our cases are individually hand made and the papers we use to cover them are printed but reproduced from these beautiful original papers. Marble paper varies - sample swatches below. See marble paper.

Henry Teesdale was a London map publisher who flourished in the period 1828-1843. He was responsible for a number of large-scale maps, world charts, a world atlas and two county atlases. Teesdale is known to have acquired Robert Rowe’s English Atlas in the 1820s and reissued it as his own with much altered plates as “New British Atlas”. Teesdale also published the “New Travelling Atlas” in 1830.

All maps are laid on to cloth and, along with the slip cases, are individually made by hand in our Buckinghamshire workshop. Small and medium maps available unframed. See slip cases & marble paper.

Standard maps are framed in mouldings which we produce ourselves in hand painted and waxed black. Additionally, the large maps can also be framed in woods such as Birds Eye Maple and Walnut which we veneer in the traditional way. See Framing.
