Our custom fitted covers are a perfect addition to Kickstarter campaigns, collector editions, and special releases. Each cover is designed specifically for your book — created to reflect the story, atmosphere, and meaning behind your work.
To begin, we'll need the exact dimensions of your book — and whether it's a paperback or hardcover. Because fitted covers are custom-built around the exact size and structure of the book, the format must be finalized before production begins.
If you already have artwork that can be converted into an engravable SVG, we can work from that. If not, we'll collaborate on a custom engrave-friendly design — and we typically create multiple concepts for you to review before production.
Next, choose the materials for your campaign cover so the final product fully matches the aesthetic of your book and Kickstarter branding.
Once the design and materials are finalized, we create high-quality renderings of the cover — similar to the visuals in our customizer — ready to power your launch.
Want a real cover in hand before launch? Authors may purchase a physical sample at 50% off retail. We'll provide professional images of the finished sample for your promotions — a realistic preview for backers before they pledge.
Once a campaign exceeds 10 cover orders, production is just 25% of the retail value per cover.
Shipping to your backers within the USA is always free — on every order.
Order a physical sample cover before launch at half of retail pricing.
Most fitted covers retail between $175–$200 before volume discounts. Campaigns exceeding 10 cover orders unlock production pricing at 25% of retail — with free US shipping to every backer.
No. Your cover design remains exclusive to your campaign unless you specifically request that we continue offering it afterward.
No worries at all. If your campaign is not funded, nothing is owed to the Heirloom Bookery team.
Pricing varies depending on the materials and style selections chosen for the campaign. Before any volume discounts, most fitted covers typically retail between $175–$200 USD.
Once your Kickstarter campaign is successfully funded and you receive the funds, you'll submit your final order list to Heirloom Bookery. For each customer we'll need:
Kickstarter orders typically have lead times about 2 weeks longer than our standard turnaround, since we often need to source additional wood and leather in your selected styles specifically for your campaign.
No minimum order quantity is required. However, once campaigns exceed 10 cover orders, authors receive discounted production pricing at 25% of the retail value per cover.
If your book is traditionally published, represented by an agent, or under a publishing contract, you are responsible for obtaining any necessary permissions or approvals before working with Heirloom Bookery.
No. By moving forward with a project, the author confirms they have the legal authority to commission and sell the designs associated with their campaign. Heirloom Bookery is not responsible for any copyright, licensing, publishing contract, or other legal disputes related to the project.
Tell us about your book and campaign, and we'll create concepts, renderings, and an optional sample before you launch.
