Die pols van hartlike Suid-Afrika
"Pulse of hearty South-Africa"
Postcards
Postcards are what they are: a moment in time, heartened by a handwritten message, posted to a loved one, stored in a forgotten shoe box on the top shelf. Volhart postcards are exactly that but made to be displayed, cherished and most important of all remembered and seen. Each image is individually hand printed on birch plywood (on which you can write with a ball point pen) in one of four colours. Whether the recipient is the fridge magnet type, or the pinboard type, or even the fireplace mantlepiece type, they will find a way to hang it, pin it, stick it or make it stand.
Something to take to heart:
We hand print personalized and custom designed postcards for all your special occasions such as wedding invitations and corporate events. Contact us with your requirements and we will gladly provide you with the relevant information.
