Our fabric book envelope is currently available in four different designs: a floral pattern used for the endpaper for PB no. 33 The Far Cry, a red pattern used for the endpaper for PB no. 142 As It Was, a dark blue pattern used for the endpaper for PB no. 143 A Well Full of Leaves (all pictured above) and a light blue pattern used for the endpaper for PB no. 99 Patience (pictured below).

Each envelope neatly fits a Persephone book inside, except for the very long ones over 600 pages like PB no. 130 National Provincial, where it is a bit of a squeeze. It is a way to gift-wrap books that is kinder to the environment than paper, but the envelopes have a number of other uses too: as a sandwich bag, a make-up bag, or just to keep your current read clean rather than covered in ink or crumbs.

The envelopes have been specially designed for us by Re-Wrap, a social enterprise in South India which manufactures organic cotton products in a way that impacts positively on its women suppliers and employees.
