FINE WEAVE LINEN AND FABRIC
Our linens and fabrics are sourced from all over the world, including Italy, Japan, and right here in the United States. The options range from casual to elegant, whimsical to classy. Since natural materials and dyes are used in these fabrics, there may be slight variations in actual color.

FULL GRAIN LEATHER
This is the most beautiful and luxurious grade of leather that money can buy. Made from the top layer of the hide, it retains all of the natural grain — as well as its imperfections and inconsistencies — resulting in a completely unique album cover. (To emphasize: Variation in the material must be expected. No two covers will look the same, especially for American bourbon. There will be differences in color hue, darkness of the leather, any marks and scarring, etc.) Because the top layer contains the strongest fibers in the hide, full grain leather is also extremely durable and strong, and will stand the test of time. Over the years, the material burnishes and beautifies, developing a beautiful patina.

FASHION LEATHER
Leather in its soft, familiar tones. Without the weight of full grain leather, it is top coated for finish, and then stamped for texture. The manufacturing process is more environmentally-friendly than any other type of genuine leather production.

PREMIUM LEATHER
Top grain leather is the most durable type of leather and the easiest to maintain. The outermost layer of the hide is sanded away, removing blemishes and imperfections. It is stamped with an imitation grain texture to give it a uniform look, and then coated with a seal to prevent absorption of oils, dirt, and liquids. The final appearance is a smooth, grained finish.

VEGAN LEATHER
For a clean and consistent look, our vegan leathers are manufactured from synthetic sources through an environmentally safe process. They’re compliant with Prop 65, and are made without heavy metal stabilizers, flame retardants, or conflict minerals.

VELVET
Soft, luxurious, with a slight shimmer, this is for couples who want an album cover that is truly “smooth like velvet.” The rich texture gives that classic, imperfect look that maintains an air of agelessness.
