- Blindstamp - A blindstamp, also known as a blind impression or blind embossing, is an indentation or raised design on paper or other materials made without using any ink or foil. It is created by pressing a die, stamp, or engraved plate onto the surface of the material, leaving a mark or relief that is visible when viewed from a certain angle. Blindstamping is often used in printing and bookbinding as a decorative element or to add texture to a surface, and can be combined with other printing techniques such as letterpress or foil stamping for a more elaborate effect.
- Circa - A Latin term meaning 'about', often used in the antique trade to give an approximate date for the piece, usually considered to be five years on either side of the circa year. Thus, circa 1900 means the piece was made about 1900, probably between 1895 and 1905. The expression is sometimes abbreviated to c.1900.
