Vintage Steel Letters That Actually Age Rather Beautifully
Right then, here's the thing about these black metal letters: they're rather good at sitting on your wall looking impossibly cool. Made from proper thick steel and given the full rusting treatment before we coat them in that gorgeous rustic black finish, each one develops its own slightly wonky patina. Which is fancy speak for they look absolutely splendid and absolutely authentic.
Why Choose Our Metal Letters
Fabulously Made from Real Steel: We've crafted these from high grade 2mm thick steel right here in the UK. None of that flimsy imported nonsense. Each letter gets an aged finish that's genuinely individual because, well, rust doesn't read instruction manuals.
Choose Your Size: Available in 12 inch or 5 inch heights. The 12 inch A measures roughly 33cm wide, while smaller letters like I sit at a mere 9.5cm. Perfect for spelling literally anything you fancy. We stock all 26 letters plus numbers, symbols and even hearts if you're feeling sentimental.
Mount Them Anywhere: Use quality adhesive for walls, Command Strips if you're renting, hooks if you fancy that vibe, or drill straight through for the properly committed. Some letters look rather fetching simply propped on a shelf too.
Utterly Versatile: Want to preserve that gorgeous patina? Pop on some everyday varnish. Fancy a colour change? Spray or paint them whatever hue takes your fancy. They'll age beautifully according to wherever you put them, developing character like a proper vintage find.
Nationwide Delivery, Genuinely Affordable: Just 4.99 for as many letters as you'd like, delivered right to your door. No hidden charges, no nonsense.

SHIPPING + RETURNS
THE RATHER IMPORTANT BITS
This rather lovely piece ships directly from our brand partner - we work with independent brands who are absolutely brilliant and work frightfully hard to create beautiful things.
SHIPPING DESTINATIONS
Now, here's the thing - our wonderful brand partners ship to lots of different places, but not all of them can ship worldwide.
Some are brilliant at international shipping, others prefer to keep things closer to home.
At checkout, you'll see exactly where this particular brand can send your goodies.
We're terribly sorry, but shipping costs do vary rather wildly depending on where you are in the world. The exact figures pop up at checkout - no nasty surprises!
RETURNS
You have 14 days to return items.
Now, we absolutely adore our brand partners - they work incredibly hard and we do try to support them as much as we possibly can. So I'm rather afraid we have to pass the return postage costs back to you. Frightfully sorry about that!
🌍 PLEASE CHOOSE THOUGHTFULLY:
Our wonderful partners put their hearts into everything they make.
Ordering multiple sizes to try at home is rather hard on our planet and makes things jolly difficult for these brilliant independent creators.
When in doubt, do ask us first!

We Have Lots More Like This.........
Hello, we are Sostter....
Sostter began, as all good ideas do, with a lively conversation and a shared sense of frustration. Why had the world of independent design become so serious, so samey, so… beige? Where was the spark, the imagination, the sheer joy of discovering something that made you stop and stare?
We dreamt of a marketplace that celebrated difference — where curious minds could explore a world of independent brands, design-led makers, and thoughtful artisans. A space that felt exciting, human, and beautifully imperfect.
Today, Sostter brings together remarkable people and their creations — from London to Lausanne, Brooklyn to Berlin — uniting makers and discoverers through craftsmanship, creativity, and conscience. Every object tells a story, and every purchase supports an independent brand doing things differently.
This is just the beginning. But enough about us — step inside, explore our world, and see what catches your imagination.
Giving Back
We’re proud to support Sutton Night Watch, a grassroots UK charity making a real difference in the lives of those facing homelessness. Through regular donations of stock, supplies, and essentials, we back their mission to offer warmth, dignity, and practical help to anyone in need — right where it matters most.
