Product Details

Foil Stamped Business Cards

These pressed metallic cards are for the moment a card is handed across the table at the end of a first meeting. A die presses real gold, silver, rose gold or copper foil into 300gsm Wild Cotton board under heat and pressure, so the metallic front sits in a recessed impression instead of a printed effect.

The whole front is stamped in one foil color, and the back is left unprinted. Each card is a single flat rectangle at 90 x 55 mm. Landscape is the default orientation, and portrait is available. Clean shapes, a single logo and a restrained amount of type carry the stamp well.

This finish suits a studio, an architecture practice, a jeweler, a lawyer, a photographer or a hospitality or property brand. The card reads clearly at arm's length, and the recessed impression is something to feel when the card changes hands.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the minimum and maximum order?

The order range is 100 to 250 cards, in steps of 10. Runs above 250 are available by custom quote, and nothing is held in stock because the cards are made to order.

How is artwork handled before the die is made?

Artwork is approved before the die is produced. A die is a custom plate cut to the design, so it only works for that layout. There is no maximum number of proof rounds, and nothing goes to press until you approve the design.

What stock are the cards made from?

They are stamped onto white 300gsm Wild Cotton board. The board is uncoated, and the front carries the foil while the back is left unprinted.

Which foil colors can I choose?

Gold, silver, rose gold and copper are the four standard foil colors. Other foil colors are available on request. The whole front is stamped in the one color you choose, and anything beyond a single foil color on the front goes to a custom quote.

What size and orientation are the cards?

Each card is a single flat rectangle at 90 x 55 mm. Landscape is the default orientation, and portrait is available. The back is unprinted, and a plain digitally printed back is available on request as a custom quote.

Can I use more than one foil color on a card?

This product is stamped with a single foil color across the front. The four named colors are the choice, additional colors can be requested, and anything beyond a single foil color on the front goes to a custom quote.

How does this product differ from the digital foil range?

This product is die pressed into cotton board, leaving a recessed metallic surface. The Flat Foil Business Cards are a digital finish on a coated card, so they are separate products for a different kind of brief.

Who is this product for?

It suits a studio, an architecture practice, a jeweler, a lawyer, a photographer, or a hospitality or property brand. The card is handed over at the end of a first meeting, and the recessed metallic front reads clearly at arm's length.

A Pressed Metallic Finish

Foil stamped business cards are a pressed finish, not a printed metallic effect. A die presses real gold, silver, rose gold or copper foil into 300gsm Wild Cotton board under heat and pressure, and the foil sits in a recessed impression. The finished card reads clearly at arm's length, and the recessed impression is something to feel when the card is handed across a table. This is the card for a professional whose stationery is handed over at the end of a first meeting, from a studio or architecture practice to a jeweler, a lawyer, a photographer or a hospitality or property brand.

Choosing the Right Foil Color

The sense of the card changes with the metal, so the first decision is which foil color runs across the whole front. Gold, silver, rose gold and copper are the standard options, and other foil colors are available on request. The card itself is a single flat rectangle at 90 x 55 mm on white 300gsm Wild Cotton board. Landscape is the default orientation, and portrait is available. Clean shapes, a single logo and a restrained amount of type carry a stamp well, so the foil areas are the design rather than a background texture.

How the Card Is Set Up

  • Foil color: one color is chosen for the whole front, with gold, silver, rose gold and copper as the standard options.
  • Printing: the front is foil stamped and the back is left unprinted.
  • Orientation: landscape is the default, and portrait is available.
  • Artwork: a die is made for the design after approval, so nothing goes to press until the design is confirmed.

The card is stamped to order, so nothing is held in stock. Order from 100 to 250 cards in steps of 10, with larger runs available by custom quote. Artwork is approved before the die is produced, and there is no maximum number of proof rounds.

Industries That Hand Over a Card

These cards suit a studio or consultancy where the card is handed over at the end of a first meeting. They also fit an architect, a jeweler, a lawyer, a photographer, or a hospitality or property brand. A clean logo in gold or silver on white cotton board is easy to read at arm's length, and the recessed impression gives the recipient something to feel when the card is passed across a table.

Why Choose This Over Other Foil Cards

A business orders this product when the metallic surface needs to sit recessed in the cotton board rather than raised or flat. Unlike Flat Foil Business Cards, which are a digital finish on a coated card, these cards are die pressed into cotton board. If you want a metallic finish that sits raised above the card, choose Embossed Foil Business Cards. For a single color ink impression with no metallic, the Letterpress Business Cards are the sibling.
