Rossi 1931 is family owned and operated paper-making company in Florence, Italy – operating since 1931.
These unique Italian designs, dating from the fifteenth and sixteenth century, are printed on high-quality soft paper.
This entire collection is made with the family’s traditional letterpress.
Developed in the 14th century, letterpress printing involves setting type and motifs in reverse on a letterpress plate.
The plate is then inked and pressed onto the surface of the paper.
The pressing process transfers the ink and leaves a deep impression on the paper creating a three-dimensional print that has a feel unlike any other type of printing.
The nature of printing demands a high quality and generally heavier weight paper that will not tear or thin when pressed.
Created with a perfect type of paper containing fibers that are soft and readily accept an impression as well as ink.
As you might expect, letterpress printing is both time-consuming and labor-intensive.
Prints are made one at a time with each print having its own unique variations of ink coverage and depth of impression.
| Illustration | Crow, Black Cat, Bat, Dragon, Astrolabe, Palmistry, Heart, Skull, Brain, Joker |
