For All Book Lovers
Who are custom book embossers for? Everyone who loves books!
Marking your library
An embossed “From the Library of” or “Ex Libris” seal is the most elegant way to mark a book as yours. Our builder gives you four ways to design it, and every design is precision-made to emboss paper and card up to 200gsm.
Browse our library of designs drawn in-house, from bookish motifs and sleepy cats to fantasy, zodiac, wedding and monogram designs. Each one is drawn to emboss cleanly.
From £27.95, design included
Already have a family crest, logo, monogram or a drawing your child made? Upload it and we’ll turn it into a custom book embosser made just for you.
From £27.95, no artwork fee
Can’t find the right design? Describe the one you’re picturing and our design tool draws it in seconds, completely free, with your wording spelled exactly as you typed it.
Free to create, from £27.95 to order
Want something truly one of a kind? Tell our in-house designers your idea and they’ll draw a bespoke ex libris design for you, from your dog asleep on a pile of books to your home.
£9.95 design fee + handle
Ready when you are
You'll see a live preview of your custom book embosser as you build it, and our team checks every design by hand before it's made. Free UK shipping.
Interchangeable embosser inserts
Every Book Embosser handle takes interchangeable inserts. The design plate clips in and out, so you never need to buy a whole new embosser to get a new design.
Moved house, got married, or want a separate “From the Library of” seal for each child? Order a replacement insert for £18.95 and use the handle you already own.
Your first custom book embosser comes with the handle and your design insert, from £27.95.
Fancy a new design, a new name or new wording? Just order the insert. You don’t need a new handle.
Clip the old insert out, clip the new one in. That’s it. Keep your old inserts and swap between them whenever you like.
Replacement inserts £18.95
Much cheaper than buying a whole new embosser.
One handle, many designs
Ex libris, monograms, wedding names and more.
Less waste
Keep using the handle you already own.

Beautifully made. I could not fault this at all. The embosser plate is exactly as the design I uploaded. I would recommend not using a small font in your design as I did. That's on me and I should have known, but I'm just so so happy with this. From ordering to delivery it took 7 days. Highly recommended product.

I have already bought 3 and I am very satisfied. Excellent product, robust material and good handling. Quick delivery and good communication for creating my own design.
