Letterpress printing has experienced an artistic revival in the last decade due to renewed interest in hand printed papers. This craft is labor intensive and requires knowledge of a practiced skill and aesthetic. Years ago, letterpress printing was
surpassed by cheaper methods, better suited to mass market and fast production schedules. However, just as Van Gogh is admired in a world of paint-by-numbers, fine letterpress printing is increasingly regarded as printing at its finest.
The letterpress process is relief printed. This occurs when a raised surface is inked and pressed into paper. A raised surface can be wood type, metal type, a dingbat (typographic ornament), a photo-engraved plate, a woodcut, or a hand-carved linoleum block. The application of modern technology to the initial letterpress process creates limitless design possibilities for your stationery, while still maintaining the fine art tradition of hand printed papers.
In fine letterpress printing, the object of print is to obtain a precise and sharp impression. The quality of the impression should reflect a visual and tactile aesthetic within the paper. Depending on paper selection, an impression can reflect either a subtle imprint, or a crisp bite. Ultimately, the impression leaves behind a history of the process, indicating the quality of the print. In the end, every letterpress print holds a mark of character in its making.
