Gift Box: 4 button badges (Lost Language Marks)

This elegant matchbox-style gift box contains four designs from Stereohype's growing button badge collection – now available for the first time in this superb packaging solution. A rose-gold foil-blocked Stereohype mascot squirrel was hand-printed in the UK at the top of the gift box (outside dimensions: 75 x 72 x 16mm). Inside the beautiful matt black cardboard gift box is a black flock pad and badges are directly pinned into it. All Stereohype button badges available at stereohype.com are classic high quality one inch (25mm) metal back badges with so-called D-pin (although it looks more like an 'e'). Tiny stickers at the back of each button badge mention the artist, release date, series number, etc. Badges are manufactured with love and care in the United Kingdom.

Marks from a Lost Language

‘The shapes are from a series of experimental work I did exploring the shape of language/s. ... A variety of geometric shapes were printed on acetate, sliced up, folded and bent and then photographed from several angles on a light box to create the new “marks”.’ — Gary Prendergast / Cut Shape Make
