Each finish is pressure, a blade or heat on raw board. Most boxes combine two or three; the sample kit holds all six, so you can choose with your fingertips.
Raised from behind with a brass die. It catches the light and reads at arm's length.
Pressed down into the face. It holds a shadow and shrugs off scuffs in the post.
A clean opening through the board that frames the product, or simply a shape.
A pressed crease that decides where the box bends, and how crisply it does.
An all-over pattern pressed into the board, from fine linen to bold ribs.
Heat and pressure darken the fibres. It is the only colour we ever add.
