Holy books are often cherished heirlooms, passed down through generations, and are well-loved and well-used. Over time, with fine paper and leather covers, they can become brittle and fragile. These precious books may need some tender loving care (TLC) to restore them to a condition where they can continue to be passed down to the next generation.

Yapp-Edged Bibles

A Yapp-edged Bible features a leather binding that extends over the page edges, protecting the book’s gilt edges from the sun and rain.

The flexible nature of this binding style makes the book easy to hold with one hand during readings and sermons.

We can easily re-bind a hardback book into a Yapp-edged style, making it more comfortable and practical for use.

Hard-Backed Bibles

Hard-backed Bibles, whether from publishers or personal collections, can be re-bound in cloth or leather, with options for hand-tooling and foiling to add a personalized touch.

You can also include a special message or quote to make the Bible a unique and meaningful gift.

Additionally, extra ribbons can be added as placeholders, making it easy to locate multiple texts with ease.

I would just like to say a big thank you to John (and all at DAD) for the restoration of my Family Bible. I collected it today and the work is brilliant.

I’m so impressed with the quality of the workmanship.

Thanks again for all your help
