All BookBoxes™ are made from real (hard cover) books that have been either discarded (sent to recycling) or remaindered. Many have been through one or more garage sales and/or other recycling efforts before reaching us. They may therefore harbor evidence of previous ownership (labels, inscriptions etc). If you are only interested in 'new' products please be sure to purchase from our Premium product line.

The information below provides brief explanations of the condition of our bookboxes according to product line.

REGULAR PRODUCT LINE
These are the kind of books that are in everyone's home or office. We select the very best of the 'modern' books that are received from recycling organizations.
Condition
These books are not new but they are in 'good' or 'near new' condition. Minor scuffs and dents may be present but they will not be substantial. Labels, library markings and/or inscriptions may appear on inside pages but the books will not be defaced or dog-eared.

ONE OF A KIND
These are REGULAR or ANTIQUE bookboxes that are made from rare or antique books of exceptional quality. The more modern versions will have been chosen because of an interesting or odd title.

Like other REGULAR or ANTIQUE products they may be scuffed and/or dented.

ANTIQUE PRODUCT LINE
Beautiful old books in aging bindings that have been sitting on someone's shelf for over forty years.
Crafted from the oldest generation of discarded books they are either published prior to 1960 or are antique in appearance. Antique BookBoxes™ are innocuous in any setting.
Condition
Definitely used in appearance. There are obvious signs of wear. Inscriptions and notations inside the books are common.
Titles
Typically reference books (eg. Encyclopedias) and older fiction. There is tremendous variety in what people discard.

PREMIUM PRODUCT LINE
Premium BookBoxes are our most exclusive products. Every PREMIUM BookBox is an exceptional work of art. Each one has a colorful dust cover and matching graphic on the inside that frames the cavity to create a stunning presentation.

Premium BookBoxes are re-published by us. This means that the outside and first few pages of a recycled book's original content is changed. In effect, used books are re-published as new BookBoxes. This process allows us to convert out of date text books into popular titles, such as Moby Dick.

Re-publishing permits us to design books and to offer unique and exciting titles that would not otherwise be available.

CUSTOM MADE
Yes, we will convert your books into boxes. The price is the same as for regular BookBoxes of a similar size, plus the additional expense of shipping to and from our studio.

Just send an email, telling us what you are planning to send and we will get back to you with a price and instructions.

Turn around time is typically four to six weeks.

WANT TO BE THE AUTHOR?
You can be the author and/or publisher of any of our premium titles. We can even alter the titles to suit your needs.

"In Praise of Wine, by Mary Ellen Walling" could become "Start Your Own Winery, by Jane Doe, published by Doe's Liquor Store."

Just send an email, telling us what you have in mind and we will get back to you with a price and instructions.

Minimum order is 20 pieces. There is a set-up fee of $50 for orders of less than 100 boxes. Premium prices apply.
