Kelp is an original Cambridge Imprint design, first published in 2025. It is an undulating line of waving or oscillating fronds, which could be found in nature or perhaps arising from a mathematical formula. When viewed from far away a natural vertical stripe emerges optically that is not evident close up. Available in seven colour ways: Raspberry Ripple, French Ultramarine, Boiled Egg, Tangerine, Blueberry, Sea Green and Ink Blot. The Blueberry colour way is very hard to photograph well: it is a richer and slightly more purplish deep blue than appears in these pictures.

If you are looking for a coordinating ribbon, our Italian Cotton Ribbon in Navy is a very good match.

Cambridge Imprint paper is printed in England on responsibly sourced paper of archiving quality, using hand-mixed inks. Each sheet is printed in one or two colours on uncoated 90 gsm stock to create a high-quality matte paper with a hand-printed feel to it.
