The rustle of a tissue-lined envelope to a glimmer of gold-gilt edging… there’s much to delight over when it comes to a piece of Smythson stationery.

Gilt-edging | Smythson

Gilt-edging

By delicately applying heat to sheets of gold or silver leaf, our signature gilt-edge stationery adds a decorative finish to your correspondence.

Tissue-Lining  | Smythson

Tissue Lining

Our envelopes are hand-lined by our artisans with soft tissue, in a range of colourways, using a ‘full wrap’ technique to cover all surfaces inside.

Engraving

Intricately cutting lettering, crests, or symbols into a steel die or copperplate using a needle-like burin, our traditional printing technique has been perfected for decades.
