“The Tree of Leaves” print brings together the leaves of Irish native trees onto one imaginary branch … this includes Oak, Ash, Rowan, Birch, Scots Pine, Hawthorn, Holly, Willow, Hazel and Alder. This print is a celebration of Ireland’s remaining native woodland, a tool for learning and a reminder to all to protect our rare and precious natural woodlands”.
This print is inspired by family walks in Brackloon Woods, in County Mayo and by the print “US Tree” designed by Josef Frank in 1943-1945.

Each print block is hand-printed onto a 34gsm long-fibred handmade Japanese washi paper from Awagami Factory in Tokushima, Japan, where they have been making washi papers for eight generations.

We hand carve our printing blocks from linoleum which is fully biodegradable and recyclable. Our paper packaging is 100% recycled paper from FSC-certified sources.
