TAKE NOTE....TERRAPIN STATIONERS, NEW YORK








During my visit @ Supply & Advise, I stumbled into the beautiful notecards of Terrapin Stationers.
In this era of text messaging it's great to send a beautiful notecard as a "Thank You" or Invitation.

For nearly a century, Terrapin Stationers have produced some of the finest engraved and embossed stationery in New York (or anywhere, for that matter). Family-run for years by husband-and-wife team Lloyd and Cathy Harrington, the company has managed to weather everything from the advent of the fax machine to the ubiquity of email. Now, Cathy and son Ted are at the helm, keeping things going with a line of note cards, calling cards, and more that deftly blend old school charm and modern irreverence — think engraved “WTF?” monograms sitting comfortably next to classic hunting club crests. Everything is made from the highest quality cotton and card stock, then exactingly pressed to form the sharply defined, raised impressions that have made engraving the preferred method of high-end printing for centuries.

They don't have a stockist in The Netherlands or Belgium yet, so you have to go online to order yourself some reborn goodies.
