About Our Pearl Business Cards
Add a subtle shimmer to your business cards without the bold look of foil or high-gloss finishes. Pearl Business Cards are made with specialty pearl cardstock that catches the light as it's viewed from different angles, giving your design an elegant, understated sheen.
Pearl fibers are incorporated into the stock itself, so the effect is part of the paper rather than an added coating. The surface remains smooth to the touch while adding visual depth to printed colors and design elements.
Full-color printing takes on some of the stock's natural shimmer, making pearl paper especially well suited to designs that leave room for the material to show through. Heavy ink coverage may reduce the visible pearl effect, so thoughtful use of color and open space can help the stock shine.

Frequently Asked Questions
What do Pearl Business Cards look like?
The cardstock has a subtle shimmer that becomes more noticeable as light hits it from different angles. It's more understated than metallic foil and is part of the paper itself.
Is the pearl effect a coating added after printing?
No. Pearl fibers are incorporated into the cardstock, creating the stock's characteristic shimmer without an additional coating.
Does the pearl stock affect printed colors?
Yes. Full-color printing can take on some of the paper's subtle shimmer. Heavy or dense ink coverage can make the pearl effect less noticeable.
What types of designs work best on pearl cardstock?
Designs that allow some of the stock to remain visible can showcase the pearl effect particularly well. Heavy ink coverage may conceal some of the natural shimmer.
Can I order Pearl Business Cards with rounded corners?
Yes. Standard square corners or four rounded corners are available.
