ABOUT GIGI
"I don’t remember when I fell in love with letterpress stationery, but always knew it was in the cards for me. On the eve of my 25th birthday, my quarter-life crisis prompted me to take the leap. My main objective was to create a collection of stationery that was modern, minimalistic, and smart. Using a printing technique from the 15th century, simplistic design philosophy, and only the finest papers and inks, I present GIGI PRESS..."
ABOUT LETTERPRESS
Letterpress printing is the oldest method of printing, first used by Johannes Gutenberg in the year 1455. To obtain the quality of printing Mr. Gutenberg intended, we use plates and an antique style press. The raised surface on the plate is inked, and meticulously pressed into the paper creating the most beautiful impression you’ve ever seen and felt.
OUR EARTH-FRIENDLY COMMITMENT
We use only the finest 100% cotton, tree-free papers and soy based inks. In addition to being earth-friendly, the quality papers we use have been engineered specifically for the art of letterpress. The heavy metal press is the perfect compliment to the thick, soft paper...you’ll see.
Our mission is to draw attention to the beautiful things in life, while preserving our earth...one letterpressed note at a time.
THANK YOU
We sincerely thank you for your business. We appreciate you and your love for all things letterpress.
