The plate is theninked and pressed on to the surface of paper. The pressing processtransfers the ink and leaves a deep impressionon the paper creating a three dimensional print that has a feel unlikeany other type of printing. The nature of the printing demands a highquality, and generally heavier weight, paper that will not tear or thinwhen pressed. Rossi 1931 uses a perfect type of paper containing fibersthat are soft and readily accept an impression as well as ink. As youmight expect, letterpress printing is both time consuming andlabor-intensive. Prints are made one-at-a-time with each print havingits own unique variations of ink coverage and depth of impression.Usually, letterpress is reserved for short-run items such asinvitations, personal stationery, greeting cards and special decorativepapers. Beautiful tactile and simply exquisite, letterpress printing hasa rich, warm feel that one can’t help but appreciate. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe gold feathers on this sheet measure approximately 1\/2\" tall. 120gsm, 20x28inches.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Rossi","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51428562141463,"sku":null,"price":6.75,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0884\/2218\/7287\/files\/15056.jpg?v=1759724777","url":"https:\/\/rochesterpaperstore.myshopify.com\/products\/rossi-italian-gold-foil-letterpress-paper-gold-peacock-feathers-with-blue","provider":"Rochester Paper Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
