The db Collection began with the love of art,
the need for creative expression and a product that is so special
it will last for generations, growing more and more precious over
the years.
The collection consists of books, journals and photo
albums, that feature original art works finished with an age old
French Lacquer process that not only looks spectacular but continues
to age over the years.
The books are then hand bound utilizing century old
skills, with hand selected leathers, aged brass fixtures and hand
crafted bookmarks: the books are then properly lined with English
bookbinders cloth, and finally presented to you to keep and treasure
forever.
All of the papers used in The db Collection
of books, albums and journals are acid free parchment papers to
safeguard photographs, mementos and your special diary entries.
Paper weight varies from 90gsm for the journals up to 300gsm for
the photo albums.
The collection is available in sizes to suit all requirements
ranging from A6 - 120mm x 165mm, A5 - 165mm x 225mm, A4 - 225mm
x 310mm to large - 305mm X 380 mm.
