Frequently Asked Questions

How to customize this template?

Simply choose the design you like, then add your first name, initials, or a word of your choice . Your text will be elegantly integrated into the composition before being engraved in our workshop in Paris.

What is the difference between the two clamps?

The luxury clamp is heavier, stable and elegant – ideal for home use or as a beautiful gift.
The portable clamp is lighter and more compact – perfect for on-the-go use or as a gift.

Which direction should I choose?

You have the choice between 4 orientations:

From the bottom: ideal for embossing the bottom of a card or envelope
From the top: perfect for letterheads
From the right: recommended for the inside of a book (right page)
From the left: for left pages or according to your preferences (uncommon)

What are the creation deadlines?

Engraving and assembly : within 7 to 10 working days
Shipping: 5 to 6 days in mainland France, from our workshop

What supports can I use my pliers on?

It works perfectly on papers between 80 and 250g : book pages, letters, envelopes, menus, etc.

For clean embossing, avoid papers that are too stiff or very textured above 250g.

beautiful result

The effect is magical on my books. Just one detail, it doesn't work very well on super thick paper, so keep that in mind before choosing!
