Will my cover be the same color as the one I see on your site? We use specialized equipment and techniques to photograph our covers and color correct them on a professionally calibrated monitor to insure color accuracy and consistency. However, home computer monitors and their settings are highly variable regarding color representations. Also there can be slight variations in dye lots we receive from the tannery every few months. Please make your color choice with a generous spirit. If you are extremely sensitive to color choices we suggest that you look at our products on several different monitors before making your final selection.
Oberon Leather: The leather we use is drum dyed, not surface coated with paint as many other leathers are and therefore, nicks, scars and dye variation may, occasionally be seen. This unpainted aspect is what makes our unique tooling possible and is also the reason our leather softens and develops a deep patina over time.
Leather fading: All dyed leather will fade over time, especially those in the least stable spectrums of blue, purple or red. Once faded, the original dye cannot be restored. To avoid long term fading or radical short term fading caused by intense, direct sunlight, avoid leaving your cover on car seats or dashboards, in window seats, sills or bright sunlight at the beach. Store your cover in a drawer or shelf where it's protected from window or skylight exposure.
Color & Image Combinations: Can I have my cover in a different color? We offer our images in a choice of three colors per image. As artists and technicians we chose particular colors for each image for specific reasons: aesthetics, popularity and technical complexity. Some of our more complex images cannot be seen very well in our darker colors & and for technical reasons, certain images cannot be produced to our quality standard in particular colors. There is method to the madness!!! The first choice of color shown on the product pages of our site is generally both the most popular and /or selected by the artists as the most appropriate. At this time we do not offer other color choices.
Not at this time! All of our most popular images are offered on e-reader covers. We have been amassing our journal image library since the early 1990's. We only began making e reader covers in 2008. It's very expensive to introduce new images and incorporate images on new products. Please send us your wish list requests so that we can catalog the level of desire for an image to be eventually included on other products!
Our e-reader and journal buttons are not interchangeable. They're actually an entirely different design construction, one with a screw mount and the other with prongs. One cannot be attached properly to the other. |
