THIS IS HARRY N. ABRAMS launched a greeting card company in 1946, three years before starting our publishing company.

Six decades later, the art of making gifts out of paper is still in our DNA.

We start with a

BOOK,

separate out the CONTENT,

and reassemble it to make something totally NEW.

We create products from a seed of an IDEA.

The Noterie team includes

an editorial director (who was once a designer)

an art director

(who was once a copy editor)

a managing editor

(who was once a curator)

Our MISSION is to create pieces that are delightful to GIVE

and tempting to KEEP.

Please enjoy our Spring 2015 list!
