Vintage Vellum Envelopes

20120626-072717.jpg I am crazy for vellum. I love the look of it, the feel of it. On my last trip to New York I found a huge supply of vintage vellum envelopes in tons of different sizes. The variety of coloring from the aging process is really quite lovely when a good number of the envelopes are laid out together on a tray. We decided to sell them individually, and it is fun watching a happy customer sort through the variety, and fun to see which they choose. The vintage vellum envelopes are great for art projects, holding stamps & photographs, or just left out on a platter to be visually enjoyed.

  2. what a lovely collection. I would love to frame a few things in those.
    they have a certain allure to gentler kinder times.
