Meet (almost) My New-Old Press

Posted on by Hijiri

Here she is! The Golding Pearl Old Style No.3, that is! She has been in the process of being restored at the Arm and almost ready to come home to my studio. When I visited the Arm, I got to meet her and she was so beautiful, I can’t wait to print with her!

The room was a bit dark so the photos didn’t come out well, but this is the Golding Pearl Old Style Press No.3:

with the heart-shaped treadle!!

The flywheel is gorgeous, too.

I was so excited that I had to share! :)

I have to rearrange my studio space a bit so I can welcome her soon… can’t wait!!

Heartfish Press Softly Launches…

Posted on by Hijiri

It’s here! Happy 1.11.11! I sort of finished the new website and started preparing things for going live at 1:11pm… but of course, there are few problems (i.e URL — update: FIXED!) and I am still working working as of right now… but it’s out there now :) This is a really soft launch, though, and I was expecting some problems… so I’m not losing my mind or anything ;)

From the homepage, you can find that Heartfish Press is proud and excited to be showing at the National Stationery Show this year, that will be the big launch!

I still have so much to add for both my new shop and the custom gallery, I’ll just have to do the updates everyday this month… so please come back often :) The blog re-design is going to follow soon, too…! xo Hijiri
