Sarah Campbell Folk Birds Bookmark

Birds, blossom, berries and leaves crowded joyfully together in hot pink, orange, turquoise and lime, every shape outlined and filled like a piece of folk embroidery. Set against black, the colour does something remarkable — it glows.

It's a fine example of what Sarah Campbell does best. One of Britain's most respected pattern and textile designers, she has spent a career proving that colour can carry a design on its own, and her work has an instinctive, hand-drawn quality that no amount of digital polish could fake. Folk art traditions run all the way through it: the stylised birds, the flattened flowers, the refusal to leave any space empty.

At 48 × 162mm with an orange ribbon marker, it lies flat in any book. A brilliant little gift for anyone who loves colour, pattern, folk art or birds — and an instant lift on a grey day.

Come and see the full Museums & Galleries range in the shop — there's always more on the shelves than we can fit online.
