With Pigeon Post the envelope is integral to the letter, and the space to write in is not too daunting. It’s like Twitter, but with a pen. Once you get a correspondence going, you’ll always have your friend’s address to hand inside their latest letter. Pigeons are also the perfect size to hold a Polaroid photo, so you can slip in a selfie. And the design means each Pigeon is a small object of beauty.

If you don’t normally write letters, you’re in for an unexpected treat – the completely irrational joy of _not_ receiving an instant reply to your message… It sounds perverse in our day and age, that having to wait can feel good. But it really does. Delayed gratification is good for the soul.

Sending _one_ letter to _one_ friend and waiting for _one_ reply is entirely satisfying. It’s personal and unique; narrowcasting, not broadcasting. Romantic as it sounds, with a letter you end up with a little part of your friend, to keep forever. To tuck into a book and stumble across at some later date. A letter holds its value, and that helps sustain true friendship. Nothing digital can compare.

It’s hard to imagine any creatures having more fun than these fig-feasting feathered friends. When they first flew into the Pigeon Loft we just knew they’d be the perfect carriers for your correspondence. So pick up a pen (or quill) and get scribbling. Fun or factual, serious or silly – whatever you write on one of these little beauties is certain to cheer up anyone’s day.

From the slow, waking joy and first light of dawn, to the warm, snug cosiness of dusk, these illustrations from the studio of Californian artist Katie O’Shea wonderfully capture both comfort and hope. Send a bright and colourful one to say a cheerful hello or a warmer, darker one as a long-distance hug. Small gifts of time and love, sent to special friends near and far.

6 Pigeons per pack – 3 unique illustrations, each in 2 colourways.
