Personalisation
Can I use my own illustration on the cover of my phone case?
Yes, take a look at our custom pictures page. There is an additional cost and it takes extra time. You will also need to provide your artwork to the required specifications. But if you’re happy with all that then the results can be really wonderful!
Can I have a longer message than the character limit?
No, we’re very sorry but our character limits are carefully set based on the available space for the product. If you request a message that exceeds the limit then it will result in a delay whilst we contact you.
My message is within the character limit but doesn’t fit in the personalisation box?
This will be because the spaces, symbols and/or punctuation in your message all count towards the character limit.
Phone cases
How does my phone attach to the case?
Secured using a specially engineered micro suction pad. Slimline, non-sticky and ultra secure, your phone is easy to remove and reattach without losing grip over time. It's a nifty piece of technology that means all our cases are beautifully streamlined and practical, without marking of damaging your device in any way.
Step-by-step attachment guide
1) For optimal attachment, ensure the back of your phone is completely clean by wiping it with the alcohol wipe provided.
2) Next, position your phone onto the pad and push down firmly
3) Your device will stay securely in place for as long as you need it to.
4) To remove, simply peel your phone from the pad.
My phone doesn’t stick to the pad
If the micro suction pad or back of your device becomes dirty the attachment to your phone will be compromised.
1) Clean the pad with water and leave to air dry.
2) Clean the back of your device by wiping it with the alcohol wipe provided.
Do you make my phone size?
Our cases can be sized to fit nearly all phone models, so if you don't see your size in the product drop down menu, chances are we can still make it for you. Just drop us an email to double check.
Do the cases fold right back?
Yes. This is one of the unique features of our cases and ensures full usability, especially when you want to talk on your phone. We press each case so that it is fully fold-back-able and doing so won't cause any damage. So no need to worry about breaking the spine! We demonstrate this in the photo that shows the phone case being used as a sat-nav (please visit one of our phone case listings).
Are the leather cases available in other colours?
All available colours are listed in the product drop down menus. Occasionally we will have a small amount of different colours left over from a private commission, so it's always worth contacting us to discuss what you're after.
Still have a question?
If you the answer to your question has not been answered above, then please get in touch. We will do our best to respond as quickly as possible.

Bespoke personalisation:
When you opt for our bespoke personalisation service not only will we personalise your item using beautiful embossed gold foil, but we'll do it the good old-fashioned way – using skilled craftsmanship, a discerning eye and our beloved vintage hot foil embossing machine. It's fiddly but we love the process!
Need inspiration?
Stuck for what to write or need a bit of inspiration for your personalised gift message? We've written a quick guide that will leave you full of ideas for writing the perfect message.
Our process
We use letterpress printing and a hot foil stamping machine to personalise our products. It’s a skilled, manual process that involves many stages but, and we’re sure you’ll agree, the intricate end result is definitely worth it. It’s a fascinating technique that dates back to the 15th century.
