About Dear Annabelle
The joy of realizing it’s not junk mail. The satisfaction of a well-sealed envelope. The feel of fine paper on your fingers, the sight of a friend’s handwriting. This is where the inspiration for Dear Annabelle was born — out of the tactile and emotional joys of real human connection, all wrapped up in the simple act of sending or receiving a letter.
Dear Annabelle makes luxury paper products and home goods for those who appreciate the art and soul of meaningful exchange, whether it’s a hand-written note, an invitation to dinner, or a personal name card, made just for you. Inspired by the refined style and collector’s eye of founder Marcie Pantzer, Dear Annabelle invites people to cultivate personal, intentional connection — a rare and precious gift in our increasingly digital age.
With elegant, playful designs, richly saturated colors and countless hand-crafted details, Dear Annabelle embodies the sophistication and surprise of the epistolary form. Share news, send love, do business, or simply say hello — and make it mean more with Dear Annabelle.
Dear Annabelle is committed to protecting our environment. We carefully purchase our paper stock from FSC-certified companies that demonstrate a similar commitment to our planet through sustainable forestry practices. Additionally, Dear Annabelle is proud to donate a percentage of all sales to One Tree Planted, a Vermont-based environmental charity focused on global reforestation through tree-planting across the world.
Our Founder
Dear Annabelle was founded in 2019 by Marcie Pantzer, an entrepreneur and former Town & Country editor with a love of fine paper products, home decor, and entertaining. An avid letter writer and stationery collector, Marcie dove headfirst into her personal obsession with the craft of correspondence by creating modern, luxury paper goods that offered timeless glamour with a wink. Marcie resides in New York City with her husband and four children. The name, Dear Annabelle, is a loving nod to her daughter, Annabelle Pantzer.
