From the early 15th century, engraving is an intaglio printing technique involving an etched piece of steel or copper (a “die”). The sharply etched die fills with ink and is pressed onto the paper, delivering the highest precision & most distinguished impression.
Raised printing (or “thermography”) involves the melting of clear filament to the inked portion of a piece. The result is a raised ink outcome, with texture and a modest sheen.
The most common printing outcome, flat printing (or “lithography”) involves the basic transfer of ink to paper and a smooth finish. It’s ideal for large image areas, envelopes, labels, or combining with other techniques.
Foil stamping is the process of pressing foil into paper using a male die of your image, resulting in a subtle imprint in the foil of your choosing. An elevated and unique outcome, perfect for impactful logos, seals, or monograms.
Minimal and sculptural, blind embossing is the process of raising an image from paper without ink. A custom made brass die of your design is stamped into paper, leaving a dramatic raised image.
