Embossing Information

We are pleased to be able to offer an embossing service so that you can personalise your belts or accessories. Having your initials discreetly embossed adds a classy finishing touch and of course if you are buying something as a gift then adding initials is really lovely detail.

So...a few things to know about our embossing service :

What can I emboss?

You are able to emboss up to 3 initials without spaces/punctuation. For the moment we cannot emboss numbers or dates but hope to be able to offer this service soon.

Font type / Size

Our letters are UPPERCASE in Times New Roman font - the font is 6mm high

What items can I emboss?

Any belt and most accessories can be embossed subject to space. We can emboss on both plain or textured leather (so either on the inside or outside) but please bear in mind that if we emboss on textured leather there is a chance that you will see small breakage lines in the foil due to the uneven nature of the surface.

What positions can I have my items embossed in?

Belts can be embossed in 2 different positions, either towards the tip end of the belt or close to the buckle end. The Initials can be embossed in either landscape or portrait orientation. All of these options will be offered when adding personalisation to your cart. By default we emboss on the INSIDE of belts. If you would like us to emboss on the OUTSIDE please let us know this in the customer comment section and we will do our best to accommodate dependent on leather type)

For accessories due to the variety of permutations we have to use our best judgement as to where to place the emboss. When adding personalisation to your cart you will have the option to select to have the embossing either inside or outside. Our embossing specialist will then use his discretion to select the best location for embossing.

What colours can be embossed?

Silver, Gold or Blind (no colour)

Embossing Colours

How much does it cost?

We offer a standard price of £15 for up to 3 letters.

How long will this take?

If you choose to have initials added to one of your purchases please allow 7 days from the date of order for the item to be ready for shipment. 

Exchange/Refund/Returns

Once an item is personalised it unfortunately cannot be exchanged or refunded. We can of course still shorten any belt style that is too large.

Description

Did you know an octopus has three hearts, blue blood and a reputation for being one of the cleverest creatures in the sea? They’ve been known to open jars, escape from aquariums and generally run rings around anyone trying to keep them in check. I can’t promise this belt will make you any cleverer, but it will certainly make you smile, and it might just make you the most interesting person in the room. The leather is a mock ostrich with a quill effect in a rich denim blue, hand-finished at the tannery so the colour rolls across the strap in soft, cloudy layers, from bright cornflower to deep indigo, with the quills settling into an inky darker blue. It’s hard not to think of the ocean when you look at it, which makes it the perfect home for our octopus. Sculpted in aged silver, he sprawls across the strap with all eight tentacles curling and twisting in every direction, each one finely ridged and darkened in the recesses so it stands out in relief against the blue. Two tiny Swarovski crystal eyes peer out with a glint of mischief. It’s whimsical and full of charm, but beautifully made, and the silver against that oceanic blue is a lovely, fresh combination. This is a belt with a sense of humour, and denim blue is the ideal colour to carry it off: easy to wear, cheerful and endlessly versatile. It works well for both men and women. I’d wear it with white jeans and a navy linen shirt in summer, or with grey trousers and a white Oxford shirt when I want a little wit in my workwear. The narrow width means it even works with a suit, if you dare. On her, it’s lovely with a striped Breton top and wide-leg cream trousers, or at the waist of a white shirt dress. Be prepared to answer the question “is that an octopus?” more than once a day. Not only is the upper leather full grain quality, the lining is too. And like every belt we make, it’s handcrafted in our small Spanish atelier, where a small team still makes each one by hand and takes the time needed to get every detail right.
