Print Info.
Stories & Collectables. We are inspired by ephemera, travel, nature, vintage picture books, history and archives. Our mission is to gather fun and interesting folklore from the every day and document our findings into collectable gifts. Many are made into editions, stories and keepsakes to pass on.
Riso. Risograph is a brand of digital stencil duplicators from Japan. It was first released in Japan in 1986. They were initially used mainly for high-volume printing. Similar to screen-printing, artwork is scanned from its original and is burnt onto a wax master. The master is then fed through a print drum, layer by layer to print each separate coloured layer. Each print may vary very slightly, making each one one-off and unique. Offsetting may occur, the imperfections we think add charm. Riso-printing is an eco-friendly, energy efficient print process with no harmful emissions and minimal waste. It also prints with soy-based inks. Our mini cards and prints are riso-printed.
Soy,Water and Vegetable based inks. A variety of inks are used to print our paper goods onto FSC certified papers. Soy-based inks for our mini cards and Water or Vegetable-based inks for our screen-prints.
Small Batch Printing. Our paper goods are printed in small batches locally in London. We're keen to keep waste minimal, at the same time keeping the products unique and collectable.
