Artisan print - printing the old fashioned way using hand mixed ink, vintage letterpress machines, luxurious cotton paper. Chris and I have combined our love of typography and design with our commercial experience to explore the world of traditional letterpress print using antique presses, vintage type, beautiful papers and hand mixed inks. Our vintage presses and equipment sit happily alongside modern design techniques. We handset text in the traditional manner, using our collection of original type dating back to the c. 19th. Modern techniques can be used to transform digital artwork into plates to print on our classic presses. We create wedding, personal and business stationery, packaging and gift items and enjoy working with private clients and small boutique businesses alike. We also produce paper goods for retail. We offer regular workshops at our studio for beginners as well as more experienced printers and we've recently upgraded the space, to allow more people to work at any one time. You’ll often find us at events, demonstrating letterpress and selling our wares throughout the year. Letterpress requires a great deal of patience and dedication to the task but the results speak for themselves, with a luxurious and tactile finish. We love letterpress!
