Gilding

WHERE THE
EDGES
SHINE

Gilding is decorative printing on the outer edges of your album, adding a refined and luxurious detail. We offer a variety of colours, including gold, silver, copper, red, black, and custom options to match your style. For custom gilding, we recommend a spine of at least 1” to ensure the design stands out clearly.

This equals:

33–34 spreads (Ultra Slim) · 27–28 spreads (Slim) · 21 spreads (Standard) · 14 spreads (Heavy)
