Blue + White- Custom Bookplate

Bookplates by The Punctilious Mr. P's Place Card Co.

$98.00

The Blue & White bookplates carry one of decorative history's most enduring color partnerships to a set of twelve printed bespoke on cold-press cotton rag paper with archival Japanese inks and your name or initials in your chosen font. For libraries with a point of view. Browse all bookplate designs.

Blue and white have been in conversation for centuries — on porcelain, on tile, on paper — and that dialogue has never quite resolved itself, which is why it keeps returning. These bookplates bring that palette to the library in a form that holds its authority: printed bespoke on cold-press cotton rag paper with archival Japanese inks, twelve plates in the set with your name or initials in your chosen calligraphy font, each one prepared to mark a volume as deliberately chosen as the image it carries.

Pack Contents

12 bookplates to a set, available in two styles: Ex Libris or From the Library of. $69.

How It Works

Your name, initials, or family name prints on all 12 bookplates in the set — choose from five calligraphy fonts, or select ‘No Name’ to receive them blank. The same text appears on every plate.

  • The same name or initials will appear on all 12 bookplates.
  • We recommend that you purchase our double-sided, acid-free, REMOVABLE adhesive roller and "tip" the bookplate into the book.
  • Tipping means that you only run a single line of adhesive across the top of the bookplate (not all 4 sides) and place the bookplate into place on the inside hard cover and gently rub your fingertip along the top to adhere the bookplate. This will keep the bookplate in place forever, but will also be removable, if needed.
  • Remove the protective cap. Press roller down on a flat surface and drag backwards in a straight line only along the top of the bookplate. Replace protective cap when finished.
