Birds of India- Custom Place Cards- Upright

Drawn from the tradition of Mughal court illustration — that great flowering of observational precision and decorative opulence — Birds of India brings some of the subcontinent's most spectacular avian subjects to your table. Peacocks, parakeets, hoopoes, and more, each rendered with the layered color and fine line work of a naturalist who also happened to be an artist. This is one of the most loved designs in the Mr. P catalogue, and it earns its standing: there is simply no other place card that delivers this level of visual drama and cultural richness in a single pack.

Available in Two Sizes

• Classic — 16 place cards per pack
• Event — 12 place cards per pack

Blank or Calligraphed?

Your place cards arrive with blank backs, ready for your own hand or a calligrapher of your choosing. Prefer to arrive fully prepared? Our Digital Calligraphy service prints your guests' names in your chosen script. Explore our font collection.

This design is also available as coordinating Menu Cards and Buffet Tags — so the whole table speaks the same language.

• Available in two sizes:
• Classic Size - 8 image Premium set: 16 place cards/ name cards | 3.4" x 2.1" or 86mm x 54mm (standard credit card)

• Made-by-hand in our workshop in Old Chatham, New York
• ALL cards printed custom & bespoke to order. NO RETURNS unless in error by us.

• Customize your place cards with your guest's names. With numerous fonts to choose from, you can have your cards arrive perfectly calligraphed with your guest's names printed on the backs. That's one less thing for you to do.
• Choose your style of calligraphy above, then add up to 16 guest's names for classic size, or 8 guest's names for Event size.
• Please note: Our standard practice is to feature first names only. Should you wish to include full guest names (first + last), a 50% surcharge will apply to the calligraphy fee, as each card requires additional design time and layout consideration.
• We even include a blank card called "Try your hand" to test your writing instrument if you want to write your names yourself or send them out to your calligrapher.
