Exquisitely Practical Tools for your life and your desk.

Wms & Co designs have one foot in the Old World and another in the now. The very act of using a rubber stamp in this era of digitized everything feels positively subversive. Our stampers are unique in combining the best of European artisan craftsmanship with the modern efficiency of interchangeable imprint plates. Whether you’re stamping a business logo, your monogram or an ex libris label, they make a distinctive way to personalize packaging and communications while adding a layer of instant patina. Design is at the root of everything we do. To say it’s an obsession would not be overstating things. It has transformed our habits and our habitats. Wms & Co. offers everyday objects elevated by design and influenced by history. These are exquisitely practical tools to enhance daily life. Use them often and they will acquire the rich patina of service. We think they provide an intimate, personalized and deliciously offline experience that can be hard to come by these days. In the words of Paul Rand, the great American graphic designer, “Good design adds value of some kind, gives meaning and, not incidentally, can be sheer pleasure to behold.” We second that emotion. wmscoink.com

Self-Inking Stamper with Personalized Imprint

Our signature Self-Inking Stamper features a retractable stamping mechanism that accommodates interchangeable typographic imprint plates so it can be used for multiple messages. A hidden ink pad means there is no need for a separate stamp pad. All five sizes feel substantial in the hand, but the largest is downright monolithic. The elegant handles, derived from the design of a 19th-century paperweight, are crafted in solid hardwood and finished with our distinctive W button. Like everything at Wms & Co, the packaging is not incidental. Stampers arrive wrapped in black tissue paper in a refined heavy-duty cardboard box that references vintage factory packaging. Enclosed is a unique code and instructions directing customers to visit our site and customize their Stamper with a free personal imprint, using one of our 50+ templates or uploading their own art. The finished imprint is mailed directly to the customer. Alternatively, you can have your account set up so that you handle the personalization details directly with your client. Available in five sizes with imprint area from 2� x .875� to 5 x 2.5�. Five colorways: Copper-plated with Black handle; Nickel-plated with Black, Red or Unvarnished Ash handle; and Black Matte metal with Black handle.

Wms & Co is a collaboration between JP Williams and Allison Muench Williams. As co-founders of design MW, a New York-based design consultancy, we’ve applied rigorous thinking, meticulous craft and our unique take on color, typography and paper to wide-ranging projects for clients including Neiman Marcus, Tiffany & Co., Chilewich and West Elm. Over the years, we’ve left a big paper trail in our wake. In addition to creating branding and product development for Kate’s Paperie, Cranes, Mohawk and Gmund Büttenpapierfabrik, we founded Claudia Calhoun, a wedding line that was groundbreaking in its use of mixed typography and dark, saturated colors. JP’s lifelong passion for collecting was a big impetus for launching this company. A connoisseur of vintage typography, ephemera and classic desk tools, he has amassed legendary collections—balls of twine, envelope liners, 19th-century letterheads—many of which inspired the product offerings and aesthetic of Wms & Co. To explore this world, visit amassblog.com. From The New York Times (“Imagine the typographical possibilities”) to Remodelista (“For that someone who is eternally—and effortlessly— stylish”) and J. Crew’s Jenna Lyons (“My favorite Christmas gift”), Wms & Co. has received kudos for its beautiful design, its eclectic offering and its refreshing update to a waning category.
