PERGAMENA PUBLISHING HOUSE PUBLICATIONS

The first Pergamena publications appeared on the publishing market 25 years ago and are still something phenomenal, breaking the existing standards of editorial style and forms of expression. A characteristic feature of our publications is their multifunctionality. The reception and purpose of the publication may change depending on the needs and situation. Therefore, to make it easier for you to get to know and use our publishing offer, we have divided the products into several categories that interpenetrate and complement each other. Some refer to the form, others to the function, and often they are the same. To the classic division into categories such as maps, calendars, holiday cards, educational boards, we have also added stylized scrolls and occasional letters, which are our editorial distinguishing feature among other publishing houses.

MAPS

Pergamena maps and the continents, countries or regions presented on them are not only cartographic representations of areas, but above all their artistic portraits. Through images and symbols, we show the beauty of the lands, their values, history and tradition. After years of selling these publications, we can proudly inform you that thanks to your choices, they have become a popular decoration of Polish homes and offices. These facts naturally make our maps a good medium for visual advertising. We invite you to the advertising publications section.

STYLED SCROLL – EXHIBITION PUBLICATIONS

Stylized scrolls are publications with a very universal character and content. We publish them mainly in the form of wall publications, which are our trademark and specialty. These scrolls, like few other editorial forms, allow for the popularization and visualization of short literary works, poetry, thoughts, archives, works of art. Thanks to their original binding, they can exist directly in the space surrounding us and have an impact with their content. Some of them are provided with a wax seal – a unique distinguishing feature of our publications. After years of using the classic form of a scroll wound on wooden rollers, we are introducing another innovation. These are scrolls in a ceramic binding, which combine the beauty of the illustrated word with the beauty of majolica shimmering with the crystalline colors of nature. Ceramic covers-hangers of our publications are an innovative solution, although their components (ceramics and paper) have been known for thousands of years. We make them using the handicraft method. We offer you a choice of several basic colour patterns of hangers, temporarily only publications with a width of 30 cm. Each publication of this width available in the classic version on rollers can be made in a ceramic cover at the customer’s request. Publications published in the form of stylised scrolls can be made in various language versions according to the provided text or in a free translation.

CALENDARS

Pergamena calendars are unique editions, giving this product a new meaning and a higher dimension. Although they do not have the ability to stop time, they effectively hold the eye and attention. They decorate interiors with a unique, captivating form and thought-provoking content. The calendar graphics are printed on high-quality decorative paper with the texture of handmade paper. To strengthen and protect the sheet, the printouts are covered on both sides with a special parchment. The calendars are framed with wooden rods with decorative tips inserted into riveted sleeves, to which a decorative string is attached with a special knot, used to hang the publication on the wall. The sides of the paper are effectively torn like scrolls of old prints touched by the tooth of time. At the bottom of the calendar, there is a seal referring to the tradition of signing important documents in this way. For transport, the publication is rolled into a practical roll. Our publishing house’s calendars are an original and effective means of visual advertising. Using stock products or designing new ones, we will create a prestigious, original advertisement for your company or an engaging, personal gift for you. We invite you to view our calendars in the “from the old days” tab. There, we present a collection of calendars from years gone by that are not directly included in the current offer. In this way, we would like to present our rich and original publishing achievements.

OCCASIONAL CARDS, INVITATIONS, LETTERS AND STATIONERY

We created these unique occasional letters to maintain a beautiful tradition and to make life easier and more colorful. They refer to the climate and tradition of the already elite art of epistolography, in which written words go beyond the sphere of everyday speech, elevate and enrich our everyday life. The hand-made letters have the form of blanks decorated with graphics in the rich style of our Publishing House. We print them on fine paper with irregular edges and features referring to handmade paper and old parchments. We have provided them with an original wax seal, which closes the letter in an innovative way after folding it. Thanks to this original solution, when opening the letter, we do not break the seal, it still remains whole on the letter, adds charm to it and emphasizes the uniqueness of the correspondence. To make it easier for you to find the most beautiful, most apt phrases, formulas and thoughts, to adapt the letters to life situations, we offer thematic stationery for various occasions. We enrich them with verses of outstanding masters of words, pearls of Polish and world literature. Some of the forms contained in them, like Christmas cards, only require personalization and a signature, while others have plenty of room for your writing creativity. One stationery set includes 10 letter cards with envelopes packed in an aesthetic cardboard box also closed with a seal.

We hope that the collection of our stationery will meet your expectations and give the recipients of the letters genuine satisfaction, and maybe even inspire them to collect this correspondence as a kind of chronicle, which, in spite of time, will effectively commemorate important moments and events in life.

CHRONICLES, MEMORIAL BOOKS – SO THAT TIME AND OBLIVION DO NOT ERASE
“And truly, there is no matter so great, so famous, so peculiar, which time and oblivion would not erase at some time,
if the pens of their chroniclers do not lend it light and testimony.”

This is what Jan Długosz wrote centuries ago. This practical and wise idea has survived for centuries, because our great historian recorded it in his monumental work “Annals or Chronicles of the Famous Kingdom of Poland”. Let your descendants learn something about your history, thoughts and experiences. Write your own chronicles and memorial books. We will help you with this, provide technical support, exceptional binding, and even help you edit and print the chronicles. Our publishing house has specialised in their handicraft production for years. We offer you not only unique stylised bindings, but also help in designing and editing their interior. Leather bindings made by the masterful hand of our bookbinders, decorated with embossed ornaments and inscriptions, enriched with metal fittings like old incunabula will give the atmosphere and solemnity to the events described in them.

EDUCATIONAL BOARDS AND SCROLLERS – DEVOID OF VIRTUAL TRANSIENCE

In the era of traditional teaching aids being replaced by electronic forms, wall boards deprived of virtual transience remain an irreplaceable canon of lasting visual communication. The educational publications we publish are dedicated to all recipients, because as the wise proverb says, it is never too late to learn. In our educational mission, we take special care of school youth. We do so in accordance with the maxim uttered centuries ago by Jan Zamoyski “The Republics will be like the way their youth are raised…”
