The Pear in Paper

This letterpress eco-friendly greeting card began as an illustration – then became a hand carved linocut – then a linoprint and finally went through our letterpress platen a number of times, phew!

Florrie is our much loved, beautifully restored treadle based letterpress platen and was built in 1872.

This card is wonderfully tactile as the image is de-bossed into the soft, luxurious tree-free card.
