Arzburger Samples

This classic sample, provided to us by our friends at Arzburger, features exquisite calligraphy and an embossed family crest at the top. We get many questions about how to word an invitation when the ceremony is only to be attended by a small family group, but the reception invitation is going out to many other recipients, and this is a great reference for ceremony cards. It's engraved in grey ink on Italian torn-edge paper.

The first sample is a family crest, engraved beautifully on ecru letterhead for writing notes or other correspondence. The second sample is a classic monogram engraved at the top of a card that would be perfect for a wedding invitation, announcement, or rehearsal dinner. The soft taupe Italian felt card is exquisite, and the copper engraving really sets this item apart.

This suite was sent to us by our friends at Arzburger. It is absolutely breathtaking and the photos really don't even do it justice. They engraved it on ivory cardstock in shimmering silver, and every detail is replicated on all the accessory items - from the response card, to the reply envelope, to the return address. It is truly one of the most beautiful suites we have ever seen - and one that no doubt left an impression on each guest who received it!
