A Year Of Shakespeare On Your Wall
Some walls deserve better than a date grid.
This one gives you twelvprinte pieces of vintage literary art, each one built around a famous line and soft botanical detail.
Every month's play is chosen to match the season's mood — nightfall in Macbeth, sunlight in June.
You get a small thing to look forward to on the first of each month. And a wall that finally looks like the books on your shelf.
Twelve full pages of art — the calendar grid sits below, not over, the illustration.
✓ Twelve pieces of art, one purchase
Each month is a full illustrated page — a famous line woven into vintage botanical detail. Frame the ones you love when the year ends.
✓ A small reveal every first of the month
Turning the page is the point. You never quite remember which play is next, and that little moment lands twelve times a year.
✓ Matched to the mood of each season
This is what sets Bardwell apart. The plays aren't dropped in at random — dark ones fall in the dark months, bright ones in summer. The wall moves with the year.
✓ Reads as decor, not as office supply
The illustration takes the top of the page and the dates sit quietly underneath. Guests notice the art first.

Frequently asked questions
Is there space to actually write on it?
Yes. The dates sit in their own grid below the artwork, so appointments and birthdays go straight in. The art stays untouched at the top of the page.
Which plays are included?
All twelve months carry a different play, spread across the tragedies, comedies and romances. Each page pairs one well-known line with its illustration.
Can I frame the pages afterward?
Many people do. Once the year is over, the months you love most come off cleanly and sit well in a standard frame.
Is it too early to buy a 2027 calendar?
Not really. These are printed in one run and the nicer designs go first. Buy now, tuck it away, hang it in December.

Use the fit finder next to the size selector for a recommendation in a few seconds, or see the full measurement charts below.
Every product page has a fit finder next to the size selector — three questions, one recommendation, a few seconds. These charts are for anyone who would rather read the numbers.
How to measure
- Bust / chest. Around the fullest part, tape level, arms relaxed at your sides.
- Waist. Around the narrowest part of your torso, usually just above the navel.
- Hips. Around the fullest part, roughly 8 in below the waist.
- Inseam. From the crotch seam to the floor, in the shoes you'll wear the trousers with.
Measure over the underwear you'd normally wear, not over clothing. Keep the tape snug but not tight.

How our pieces are cut
- Dresses are cut true to size. If you are between sizes, take the smaller one — most of our dresses have ease through the waist.
- Coats and jackets are cut with room for a knit underneath. Take your usual size; size up only if you layer heavily.
- Knitwear is relaxed by design. Between sizes, take the smaller one unless you want an oversized look.
- Trousers and jeans run true to size. Between sizes, take the larger one.
- Shoes run true to size. If you have a wide foot, take half a size up.
Still not sure?
Write to info@halstead.com with your usual size, your height and the piece you're looking at. We'll tell you what we would pick — usually within a few hours. We would far rather get it right the first time than process a return.
We work in natural fibres — wool, cashmere, cotton, linen and full-grain leather.
Knitwear: cold hand wash or a wool cycle at 30 °C, no softener, dried flat and stored folded.
Coats: dry clean once or twice a season, stored on a broad wooden hanger.
Leather: wipe with a damp cloth, condition twice a year, never dry near heat.
