Leather binding comes in a variety of forms, from traditional binding, in full, half or quarter leather bindings with raised bands, foiling, hand tooling and marble papers to suit; to modern leather books, with a sleek, simple design.

Journals can be rebound in leather to match the original binding colours and style including labels, gold tooling, raised bands and library crests.

Hand tooling is our speciality and we have a large variety of designs allowing us to better match existing volumes or traditional designs.


Many historical organisations across the UK choose DAD Bookbinders to bind their minute books in full leather to match the historical volumes. Pattern volumes are required and a rub is taken for future reference so that all subsequent volumes match.
