Jessica Hische is a typographer who specifically works with letterpress
mostly but broadly a letterer . Hische is well known for her work with
Wes Anderson and penguin books. Her work is beautifully flourished
and decadent. Her work is very similar to hand-written type of an older
era - when signs where originally hand painted rather than printed digitally.

gold leafing and lettering techniques, the bottle is an old past in a
present time.
