Personalization Options


Below are options* for personalization in our handmade books.
*Options are something to discuss with us prior to purchasing a book.

------------

Custom Printing on Paper Covers
------------
Names printed on a natural lokta paper cover. This handmade paper wears beautifully and takes ink well. Other colors of lokta can be printed on. Please contact us with paper color request for availability.





Raised or Inset Designs on Cover
-----------
This design is only available with our antiqued lambskin leather.
However, the letters can be done with our rustic cowhide leathers as well.

Raised letters or words are available on our hardcover books.





Inset Items
------------

Stamps, maps, photographs and ephemera can be inset into the cover of our hardcover books or we can even do inset designs like the arrow below.





Burned Name, Words, Dates & Designs
------------
We do this by hand with a burner, not with stamps. So really, we can do anything as long as it's drawable and works well with the leather. When leather burns, it's sometimes unpredictable so the more detailed the design, the more mistakes might occur and the more costly it might become. Initials, dates and small symbols are easily done. Images must be in line format (no silhouettes) like the faces below. Burning is done on our rustic cowhide leathers only.  




Title Pages
------------
The title page can say whatever you'd like. If needed, we design it and email you an image of the title page for proofing before we print.
