Welcome
to the Cheshire Bindery website where you can view past works and find
out about our extensive range of services.
We
also have an approximate price guide with various options to help you
with your individual requirement.
The Cheshire Bindery specialises in book restoration, repair and fine
book binding. From student thesis, magazine work and cloth bindings through
to leatherwork, conservation and limited edition fine design bindings.
Protection for books and documents can be provided in the form of boxes,
slipcases and portfolios all individually designed to suit. Extreme care
is always given in using the most appropriate and sympathetic materials
to produce a well made product; handmade sketch books, notebooks and photograph
albums are also available.
All
books, however well made, will eventually require attention, pages may
become torn or marked and in need of expert repair and cleaning. The sewing
of the text block may also have loose sections, become broken or cracked.
Covers and spines can become faded, worn, scuffed, split or seperated
through regular use and handling over time. All these defects are repairable
and can be overcome.
The
Cheshire Bindery takes pride in presenting a style and integrity of craftsmanship,
thought by many to be no longer available, though still taking great care
to work efficiently. At The Cheshire Bindery, we strive to provide an
excellent service and a commitment to the traditional methods of the ancient
art of bookbinding.
