Questions, answered plainly.

The rebind is $149. If your Bible needs repair work, standard repairs start at +$50; extensive restoration is quoted individually after I inspect the book. A $50 deposit reserves your spot and is credited toward your total, with the balance due on completion.

Two weeks from the day your Bible arrives at my shop. If you're working toward an occasion — a graduation, a wedding, Christmas — plan ahead and tell me the date when you book.

After you reserve your spot, I'll send you the shop address. Pack it snug — a padded mailer inside a box works well — and ship it with tracking.

Full-grain, vegetable-tanned leather only — five Badalassi Carlo families: Pueblo, Waxy, Habana, Loch Ness, and Minerva Box. No bonded leather, no “genuine leather,” nothing that will flake in five years.

Yes. Every cover is hand-stitched. No liner, no yapp — just an honest, utilitarian cover built for daily carry.

Yes — custom engraving (a name, a date) is available, along with thread colors, ribbon markers, endsheets, and endbands. Engraved hub lines on the spine are available on every rebind.

The everyday fixes a well-used Bible needs: loose pages tipped back in, hinge reinforcement, spine-lining touch-ups. If the damage goes beyond that, I'll quote the restoration individually after inspection — before any work begins.

Yes. I photograph personal markings during assessment, and a proper rebind preserves everything — the notes, the underlining, the pressed flowers. The book comes home as itself, just sound.

Yes — a lifetime warranty against defects in materials and craftsmanship. If a stitch fails or the leather gives out because of how it was made, I’ll make it right. Normal wear, abuse, and loss aren’t covered.

No — a rebind means a brand-new, hand-made leather cover. If your book only needs a repair rather than a full rebind, I'll tell you that plainly.
