Without a doubt, one of the best desk accessories I have is a custom made address embosser. I originally purchased it for stamping my return address on my wedding invitations, and ever since it has left a beautiful mark and lasting impression on any correspondence I send.
I actually have two embossers in my arsenal - one rectangular and the other is round. Since we recently moved into a new apartment, it has now come time to update my plates.
Figured I should share some of the places I found online that will sell you the plates, since the embosser itself can be used indefinitely.
For rectangular plates, a great choice is Paper-Source. They offer address plates with 15 font choices (Filosofia anyone??) for $31.50. Looking for a motif or a custom monogram? They also carry a line of circular plate designs, all for the same $31.50 price.
Wilshire Graphic Press offers replacement plates as well. You can choose from their list of standard typefaces or email them a font of your own choice for a $10 surcharge. If you want to provide them with custom artwork, the charge for replacement rectangular plates is around $45.
Good luck!

@Miss Pinot Grigio: Oops! Guess that would help! Paper-Source sells them here:

I also bought an embosser for our return address on the invites and I love it! It adds just a bit of elegance and simplicity to the project!
Oh what a great idea! But the mister and I won’t be settling down for awhile (he’s still in grad school) so we still might move around a bit and I’d hate to be changing plates all the time! But they’re beautiful!
Thanks for this! I was just thinking about what font I would want for an embosser! This gives me all the help I need!
@alvina: A good and more economical alternative might be an address stamp. It gives the same effect without the cost.
I get my rubber stamps from Simon’s.
Thank you for this information!! I am hoping we can use this for our invitations now 
Oh, I would looooove one of these — but I suppose I should wait ’til we settle down somewhere and get a REALLY permanent address. 
Custom made address embosser is quite a bigger thing in value to leave a unique impression , while your beloved ones or business partners receive your post. All links are useful for me , now I will also be able to use carved home address, its easy now !!!!
There’s just so much here, I’m overwhelmed. I’m all for whatever contributes to a unique impression. (no pun intended.)

About Me: From the moment the engagement ring was slipped onto my finger, I've been in love with all-things-wedding. I still get teary eyed reading proposal stories in magazines and love sneaking a peek at a bride and groom glancing at one another for the first time, as the ceremony is about to begin. With each of my clients, I get to know their personality, family background and hear the story of how they met and fell in love. Each piece becomes another element from which I use to build the overall vision for their wedding day.
As the Creative Director at Inspired Goodness, my job is to create the various details that makes each of our weddings come to life. My work incorporates classic elements; engraving, hand calligraphy and vintage typography. Using a mix of found objects and flea market pieces lends a rich history to my work and challenges me to find creative ways to use mass-produced elements, each with a chic and timeless result.
With every new client, I get to explore avenues I've yet to pass and love knowing that the next adventure is just around the corner!
What a stylish idea for return addressing.
Where did you get the actual device?
