What is Letterpress Printing?

You may have noticed all our cards are letterpress printed, but what exactly does that mean and why is it so great?

Letterpress is a nearly 600 year old form of relief printing that involves pressing a carved design covered in ink into paper.

Why is that so great then? Well because unlike with digital printing it gives a beautiful embossed texture to the paper, making each design unique.

Our letterpress products are made using a vintage 1960's Heidelberg printing press, watch the quick video below to see it in action!
