Engraved Embossed Stationery: PQ Engraved Ultimo Wove, Exton Design

The timeless elegance of engraved stationery deserves a generously sized letterhead. Post Quarto fits the bill well. Traditionally know as a 7x9, it's metricised dimensions are now 176x240mm.

Our ever popular white and cream smooth wove 170gsm Italian writing paper introduces engraved print to the letterheads collection with this notable paper.

Engraved printing, also known as Intaglio, is an ancient technique employing an engraved metal die that's filled with ink that's pressed onto the paper under great force. The result is a fine quality, raised, or some say embossed, print that's superior to thermography.

To accompany the cards, I have envelopes made from matching Italian 130gsm paper with a well-proportioned peel'n'seal wallet flap.
