How it behaves in production

Warm cream cotton with a fine metallic sparkle woven into the fibres — never render as plain flat cream, the sparkle IS the point.
Gold, aged gold, copper, rose-gold, pearl foils pair beautifully; silver looks cold — avoid unless intentional.
Letterpress works but softens the sparkle — call for it only when tone-on-tone / restraint is the rationale.

Common questions

Is Gmund Cotton Shiny Cream dyed through?: Yes. The colour runs all the way through the sheet, so a cut, debossed, or die-cut edge shows the same warm cream with subtle sparkle as the face — no white core.
Can you letterpress on Gmund Cotton Shiny Cream?: Yes — it is one of the techniques we run on this stock. Letterpress ink is semi-translucent, so on darker shades it reads tone-on-tone; on light shades it prints as expected.
What weights do you stock Gmund Cotton Shiny Cream in?: 300 gsm. Heavier weights can usually be duplexed to order — ask and we will confirm before quoting.
Can I see it before I order?: Yes, and you should. Screens flatten texture and shift colour. We send physical samples of any stock in this directory before you commit.
