Brand Profile Dauphine Presscall 888-828-MINT to order Petaluma, California From our Northern California design and print studio, we create distinctive stationery and invitations by using a combination of vintage and new images, rich papers and beautiful type printed with 50-year-old Heidelberg Windmill letterpresses. Just as no two occasions are exactly alike, we firmly believe that the same should be true of the invitation. We strive to create lasting first impressions through truly personalized statements and take tremendous pride in our ability to artfully combine modern design with the heritage and stunning results of letterpress printing. Your sources of design inspiration: Vintage textile patterns and botanical engravings, block printed textiles from India, my mother’s living room décor ca. 1973, Orla Kiley’s palette, handwriting samples from the 1800s, intaglio and Etruscan jewelry, medieval heraldic crest designs. What is one thing that no one knows about you?: Before her letterpress obsession took hold, Dauphine Press founder Trish Kinsella’s career path included stints as a newspaper delivery girl, a cycling tour guide in France, and a fine arts appraiser for an auction house and a designer for Williams-Sonoma. She has lived in six different cities that begin with the letter P.
