Letter highlights
🖼️ Art by Cassandra
Each packet includes a high-quality print of Cassandra’s watercolors from Jane’s lifetime—scenes, fashion, and faces Jane would have known.
📜 A Father’s Faith
You’ll receive Reverend George Austen’s unheard-of publishing pitch to a London editor. A father promoting his daughter’s writing when few women had any rights to publish.
✂️ What Cassandra Cut
Some letters were preserved, others edited. You’ll see physical cutouts where Cassandra protected Jane’s privacy or concealed sensitive family matters.
✉️ The Cost of Intimacy
Jane often squeezed every word onto a single page to save money. Postage was charged by sheet, so her genius appears not only in the writing but in the economy of space.
📬 A True Mail Experience
You’ll open each letter exactly as Jane and Cassandra did. Folded. Waxed. Delivered to your door. No digital replica can match the anticipation of paper in your hand.
About Products
A richly immersive subscription that sends you 12 beautifully recreated letters over 6 months. Authentic correspondence Jane wrote to her sister Cassandra, her father’s appeals to publishers, and context added by scholars. Each letter arrives folded and sealed as it would have in the early 1800s, bringing you directly into Jane’s world.
Every envelope includes a recreated letter by Jane or her family, Cassandra’s artwork or sketches, scholarly insights that explain context and history, and occasional artifacts or visuals like facsimiles of first editions. It’s a living archive in your hands.
You’ll receive two letters per month, spaced roughly two weeks apart. Your first letter ships within a few business days of ordering. Once our schedule is set, expect U.S. deliveries within about two weeks and international deliveries in roughly four to six weeks.
They’re faithful recreations of actual letters. Some penned by Jane herself, others by family members, enhanced with scholarly research and reproduced for modern readers while preserving historical accuracy.
Absolutely! Our letters make an unforgettable gift for lovers of literary history, tangible storytelling, or Jane Austen herself. Consider including a personalized note to let your recipient know the journey begins soon.
Let us know at least three weeks in advance, since once the mailing cycle is underway, letters may be sent without tracking. An address change notified too late may incur a reshipping fee.
