Elegant & Sophisticated Letterpress

Letterpress printing began in the middle 1400’s. Most simply described, it is pressing paper onto wood and metal letters and hand-carved images, with ink in between. It is a process that revolutionized printing and made mass communication possible. This process dominated as the most efficient form of commercial printing until the mid-twentieth century when it was replaced by offset printing. Today, in this digital era, many consider the results of letterpress printing unrivaled for its subtleties of texture and color: Quite simply put, it is elegant, sophisticated, old school and beautiful beyond any other printing form.

A Printing Tradition

An old process with a character all its own.

Letterpress was once one of the primary ways printing was produced. Today, it's chosen for something very different — the distinctive impression, texture and craftsmanship it brings to the finished piece.

The design is pressed into the surface of the paper, creating a tactile result that's especially beautiful on premium stocks. It's a natural fit for invitations, stationery, note cards and business cards where the paper itself is part of the design.
