The Art of Letterpress Printing at Archivist Gallery

Archivist Gallery has been a leader in letterpress printing since 1994, mastering this time-honoured craft. Letterpress involves applying ink to a raised surface and pressing it onto paper or card, a process that dates back to the Gutenberg Bible in the 15th century. The tactile quality and depth achieved through this technique make every matchbox a unique piece of functional art, embodying heritage and craftsmanship.
