Bespoke Letterpress

Founded by Alischa Herrmann in 2007, a graphic designer who fell in love with the long-lost craft of letterpress printing. With passion and dedication, she lovingly restored an antique 1893 Chandler and Price printing press named ‘Charlie’, and Bespoke Letterpress was born. Operating under her house by the sea north of Brisbane, Alischa initially designed and hand-printed wedding invitations, quickly capturing attention with her sophisticated and elegant aesthetic. Demand for the letterpress creations grew, so Alischa introduced a stationery range that celebrated gifting and could be enjoyed by people every day.

As the business continued to thrive, Alischa and her husband relocated to Bowral, set amongst the rolling hills of the Southern Highlands. A new chapter began, as Alischa journeyed into motherhood while also nurturing the business into an internationally recognised brand. As Bespoke Letterpress continued to evolve, Alisha’s creative vision and distinctive design style remained at the heart of the brand, combining beautifully crafted typography and whimsical illustrations with exquisite print craftsmanship.
