About this service
An ex libris marks a book as yours and turns a shelf of books into a library with a name. We draw bookplate stamps in the classic tradition: the words "Ex libris" with your name or family name, framed by a motif that tells something about you, such as an owl, a tree of knowledge, a lighthouse, a cat on a pile of books or your favourite plant. The look follows old engravings and woodcuts, with clean lines that work as a rubber stamp or a printed sticker.
What is included
- What you getEx libris concepts with "Ex libris" and your name, each with its own motif and frame, in an engraving or woodcut style. Delivered as PNG images; vector files and production files for making the stamp are not included.

Questions and answers
Can the inscription be in another language?
Yes. "Ex libris" is traditional, but "From the books of" or a short phrase in your language works too. Check the spelling in the result.
Can it look like a real old engraving?
We draw in that style with fine hatching. For a small rubber stamp, we keep lines a little bolder so the ink does not blur them.
Is it a good gift?
Very much so. Pick the motif together with what the person reads, and order the stamp from the chosen sketch.
