History
Connoisseurs of correspondence and self-proclaimed traditionalists, Chelsea Shukov and Jamie Grobecker believe that personal stationery makes a deep, lasting impression. These close friends and graphic designers founded Sugar Paper in 2003 after falling in love with the simplicity and nostalgia of letterpress printing. Their mission was simple: to design exquisite social stationery that would be a distinctive stamp of style for their chic clientele, and shine a spotlight on a beautiful and underappreciated art form. Today, Sugar Paper is renowned for its design aesthetic, unparalleled taste and perfectionism. Having been featured in publications including Martha Stewart Weddings, VOGUE, InStyle, Lucky, Vanity Fair and Domino, Sugar Paper is a trusted resource for their upscale, stylish and celebrity clientele.
Specialties
Dating back to the 15th century, letterpress is the original method of printing. Today, it is considered an art form in itself. At Sugar Paper, every order is printed in house by a skilled pressman. Each piece of paper and envelope is hand-fed into an antique press one sheet at a time, giving each character a deep impression that cannot be replicated with modern machinery.
