Before each shipment, the workshop verifies the quality of the engraving. The stamp is tested on a small card tucked into the box containing your bookplate.

Details
AN ORIGINAL GIFT WITH MEANING.
Staff

Artisanal
A gift born from artistic and artisanal craftsmanship, sustainable and produced in small batches.
EX-LIBRIS IN A FEW POINTS
N°01 — THE TRADITION
It is a forgotten tradition, born several centuries ago. Morgane Rospars, an independent artist, draws inspiration from it and brings it to life with a modern touch. Her bookplates are handcrafted in France and produced in very small quantities. They are discreet works of art that will leave your mark on your books for future generations.
N°02 — AUTHENTICITY
A stamp is by definition imperfect, and that is where all its beauty lies. Solid areas are never perfectly smooth: they vary depending on the inking and the paper. Why make bookplates in the form of stamps? Because they are durable and can stay with you your whole life long.
N°03 — THE ACTION
There is something childlike about using a stamp. It is a surprise and a satisfaction with every impression. A simple and pleasant gesture, which also finds its joy in appropriation and repetition.
N°04 — slow living
It is a ritual before or after reading, which, however small it may be, becomes a moment for you, without screens or urgency.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is an ex-libris?
It is an old, forgotten tradition that allows you to mark your books with your name.
IS THIS FOR ME?
Everyone can have a bookplate. Use just one for all your books, or several depending on your mood or the type of work: it can be stamped just as well on a Pléiade edition as on a paperback or a comic book.
CAN I GIVE AN EX-LIBRIS AS A GIFT?
Yes! Choose the model that resembles the person, then enter the name to be inscribed. If you prefer that they choose for themselves, give them a gift voucher.
CAN THE INK COLOR BE CHANGED?
Morgane chooses the color of the ink pad included with each bookplate according to her inspiration. However, we can exchange it for another color upon request.
HOW DO I MAINTAIN MY STAMP?
Gently clean the surface with water and a little soap, then let it dry. Avoid soaking the wooden frame.
