Studio note
Move beyond paper into metal: stainless steel card, chemical etch process reveals a warm gold-tone finish where the mark, wreath, and type are cut. The back stays brushed stainless, unmarked, letting the front do all the talking. It's substantial, memorable, and reads luxury through weight and material instead of surface shine. Rounded corners are die-cut after etching.
