Calligraphy

Paper Goods

Handwritten details feel more thoughtful, personal, and less like everything else.

From welcoming guests with place cards to calligraphy on meaningful items you already own, each piece is created to fit what you need, whether that’s something small, simple, or a little more bespoke.

  • Style sets the overall feel for your piece - from soft and classic to something more expressive, we have four styles you can choose from:
    1. Modern
    2. Modern Flourish
    3. Copperplate
    4. Spencerian.

    You can find out more about our styles here. If you do have a specific style in mind, you’re more than welcome to let us now.

  • Ink is where things get a little more fun. Choose from colours like classic black, walnut brown, to something a little more shimmery like golds and silvers.

    Custom ink colours are also available at an additional cost.

  • Ivory textured card-stock will always be a classic and favourite around here.

    That said, we also love pops of colour and have a range of coloured card-stock to suit your project.

    Pieces can be cut to your preferred shape, and also love hand-torn edges for that soft finishing touch

  • Embellishments are completely optional, but a fun way to bring a little extra personality to your pieces through details and textures.

    We offer a range of options including:
    • Wax Seals
    • Delicate Floral or Venue Illustrations
    • Gold Leafing
    • Silk Ribbons

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Where possible, I recommend getting in touch at least a few months ahead of your date. For invites, at least 5 - 6 months in advance. That said, feel free to reach out even if your timeline is shorter. I’ll always do my best to accommodate where possible (rush fees may apply).

  • • For NZ, shipping takes overnight to 1 working day.
    •For Australia, 3 - 10 working days
    • For anywhere beyond, 3 - 13 working days

    All timeframes are estimates and may vary slightly.

  • I love focusing on on smaller, detail-led pieces such as place cards, personal calligraphy (like vows or keepsakes), and bespoke one-off work. It’s all about letting calligraphy take centre stage in a simple and thoughtful way.

  • While I do occasionally work on provided items, I’m quite selective as different surfaces can react differently with ink. I usually start with a small test mark in an inconspicuous area first, just to see how everything behaves and make sure the final result will sit beautifully before continuing.

  • Pricing varies depending on the piece. Smaller items like place cards are usually priced per piece, while one-off or more bespoke work is quoted individually.

  • I’d love to hear about your idea. Share as much detail as you can — the style, overall feel, any paper colours you have in mind, and anything else you’re drawn to. You’re also very welcome to send through photos for reference using our inquiry form below or via email hello@rosemay.studio
