Letter embossing without foil
Letter embossing is done with actual bronze letters. Each embossing is designed by hand letter by letter and is then pressed with heat into the cover. That’s why it is possible to choose any name or text for your album cover. The depth of the embossing varies according to the material chosen. Please refer to the chart below to see what foil colors work on what materials.

Letter embossing with foil
Letter embossing with foil is a very classy way way to personalise your album cover. Our most popular customisation option. Brass Letters are being hand picked to for a line of text. The letters then will be pressed into the leather and melted with a color foil of choice. Foil embossing will always be a little bit less deep compared to blind embossing.

Logo embossing
You can order a custom company logo stamp once, so we can use it on all of your album covers. The logo design will be physically cut from a sheet of metal. We do need a clear vector file for this. There are limitations for ultra thin lines, or small logo sizes. Once we have your logo stamp we can use it to emboss on linnen or leather covers, with or without foil.
You can also choose to have a custom logo made for a one time use. You can order the logo die directly form the album order form.

Embossing foil colors availability
See which foil colors for embossing are available on our cover material collection. For the linen materials, you can select to have no foil material. But not having foil in linen makes the embossing usually hard to read. Please see below what will work in our experience.
