Over the years Piccolo Press has built up a selection of general stationery items that can be ordered as exclusive presents.
Letterpress Cards
In an age where more and more printing is printed by technology, rather than by craft skills, we are proud to present a series of cards printed by letterpress from metal cast fonts. These fonts are no longer 'cast' and have to be handled with great care by John Sinclair, our compositor. The initials are letterpressed into specially selected card that allows the image to stand out of the card with a both imbossing and embossing.

The cards are packaged in sets of 6 cards (sized approx. 4.25 x 6.25") on either cream or white boards with matching envelopes. They are contained in a slipcase with pull out ribbon that is itself a thing of beauty. The chosen letter/design is either viewed in the centre thumb cut, or in the case of the large Cloister Initials, through a cut out square to the top left hand corner of the slip case.

Other Designs
We are also starting to bring out house designs for cards with engraved with motifs. Please ask for details. We also have a unique collection of Greetings Card Dies (circa 1950). It is our intention to run these as a limited edition, probably one or two cards each year. (See card of Choir Boy) Ask for details.We can also provide a range of blind embossed cards, stationery packs and custom made stationery.
Bookplates
Traditionally, bookplates were engraved with a custom design depicting the Coat of Arms (or interests) of the recipient. And what better present could there be than this "for life" present. However, we also letterpress print and flat litho print bookplates and these are less costly than the engraved version. See photos. Please ask for details.
