Golden Portal

'Golden Portal' is an 8x10 inch hand-carved linoleum block print. The print is hand-pressed onto magenta-colored Lokta Paper in gold ink. Lokta paper is made from the bark of the bush named Daphne Papyrus, which only grows at an altitude of 6500ft or above in the Himalayas. This Lokta paper is hand-made.

'Golden Portal' features a linoleum block printed image of a floral design inspired by the historic Art Nouveau styles of the late 19th- early 20th centuries.

*Please note that due to the nature of hand-carved linoleum block printing, every print will have its own unique quality. Each edition is inspected to be the best quality and similar, but I cannot ensure exact replica of the print pictured on this site. Part of the magic of printmaking is all of the print-specific marks like "noise" or carving marks that add to the feel of the print. Please take note of this when ordering.
