My books are handmade, custom items (with the exception of any rebinds, as the textblocks are legally purchased books, and the content is not altered in any way). Certain materials, especially leather, can contain natural variations. Colors may also vary between screens, though I do my best to take photos in lighting that accurately shows colors.
