When the Nobel Laureates receive the Nobel Prize Medal and the Nobel Prize Diploma from King Carl XVI Gustaf on 10 December in the Stockholm Concert Hall, Grycksbo Paper will also be present. The exclusive Nobel Diploma is produced on handmade paper by the mill’s hand papermaker Karl-Erik Hedberg. 

Calligrapher Annika Rücker, based in Austria, has engrossed Nobel Diplomas for many years and collaborated with Karl-Erik Hedberg since Grycksbo began supplying the papers.

“This paper is a notable example of the papermaker’s art, which together with Annika Rücker’s beautiful text, is something very special and worthy of a Nobel Laureate,” says Mikael Frölander, MD of Grycksbo Paper. “It is both a special occasion and an honour for the company that we will be present at this very important event.”
