Letterpressed cards have always been one of the main characters of our store and we so love the fine 3 dimension element it possesses… we’ve brought in another new range of cards this time, adding on to our current existing letterpressed card collection.
Grown from California, using 4 presses, 2 Piglets letterpress churns out textured wonders… See it… Run your fingers over it…FEEL…. Manually fed and pressed like the good old ancient days of the 50’s… (i wish i can time-travel back into the 50s…)
All cards are pressed using soy ink (may contain some nut oils) onto beautiful bristol paper which contains 30% post consumer recycled fiber (you just can’t tell). With NO hormones or antibotics! Inkjet and laser compatible! Presses are cleaned using ordinary & simple vegetable oil, instead of harsh & non-edible smog causing solvents. Very healthy!
Seeing for urself is the only way. No images will do justice to this one.
You’ll just have to swing by the store and check it out yourself.
For those who are wondering about this ancient beauty… watch this short documentary. It will definitely give you a better idea…
Like a tragic love story… its beautiful, romantic… and almost too painful to acknowledge that this artform… eventually will die… nothing is forever right?
