The story
Wild is a 35 percent cotton board from Cordenons, made soft, bulky and slightly toothy so that letterpress plates can sink in and leave a crisp, shadowed bite. The colours are earth tones: white, sand, clay, green, brown and black, with a heavier Natural family at 450 and 850 gsm for felt-like, almost coaster-thick cards. Because the surface is open and absorbent, large solids print with a gentle mottle, which suits the handmade look. It is our first call for deep impression wedding and identity work.
