Listen Later

If you love bespoke brands, you will absolutely adore this episode, as we host Fin Fellowes, London-based artist, illustrator and founder of The Kensington Paperie.

 

For over ​a decade, Fin has been known for exquisite one-of-a-kind paper creations for special events, weddings, and luxury brands across the world. A notable example of this​ is the collaboration w​ith Cabana Magazine and partnership with founder and editor, Martina Mondadori. 


The Kensington Paperie is a ​nod to Fin’s personal love for wrapping a beautiful gift. ​She has created a ​stunning collection of wrapping paper inspired by the ​elegance of Italian marble and vivid florals ​reminiscent of the 18th-century English textile designer, Anna Maria Garthwaite. These thoughtfully designed papers are complemented with unique textures such as raw silk ribbon and Japanese washi tap​e resulting in a style that elevates gift-giving in an extraordinary and emotional way.

 

In this episode Anne & Fin discuss:

  • Fin’s creative story
  • The rich artistic family legacy, paying a special tribute to her Uncle Matty
  • Why The Kensington Paperie was created
  • ​The attributes that describe The Kensington Paperi​e 
  • Exciting news on the upcoming introduction to home!

​The exceptional work of Fin Fellows and The Kensington Paperie has ​garnered recognition in publications such as Cabana Magazine, US Vogue, House & Garden, and the Wall Street Journal.

 

Fin has not only established a brand that beautifully embodies British style and design, but her distinctive touch has also positioned it in a covetable space. Her spirit and brilliant combination of creativity and purposeful vision suggest that The Kensington Paperie is on its way to becoming a cherished British heritage brand.
