Book & Bookmark

<p>:bookbox:<em>The Bookbox</em> takes its origins from the beautiful old book-boxes, made for people to protect their most valuable books. <br/><br/>The Bookbox was the first of August Sandgren’s aesthetic storage boxes and is now<br/>our bestselling box. Its design dates back to August Sandgren himself, and has<br/>since achieved iconic status. It comes in leather and fabric versions, both useful at home and in the office for smaller and larger piles of clutter.<br/></p><p>The leather Booxbox is made from surplus materials from exclusive members of the<br/>furniture and fashion industry. The leather is always of the highest standard and either aniline or semi-aniline. It comes in shades of black, grey and cognac, but as we use surplus materials not two batches are the same. That is<br/>the beauty of working with surplus materials – the small variations. <br/><br/>The fabric Bookbox is Limited Edition runs, with fabrics chosen by a designer who<br/>we admire. Picking from renowned and respected fabric brands, our Limited Edition collaborations always create wonders. It is storage objects that we cannot help but make because the fabrics create magical results – it serves<br/>similar purposes as that of a piece of art or a colourful cushion. Made in limited numbers, it will change every 12-18 months, so falling in love with our Limited Editions, means you’ll have to get it while it is available.;bookbox;</p><p></p><p>:inlays:For our large Bookbox we have crafted a room-divider which enables you to keep your belongings organised inside the box. The inlay is one third of the internal space of the large Bookbox, so you can add one, two or tree inlays in one large box. The room-divider is great for pens, clips, coins, etc. <br/>For our small Bookbox we have made a ring inlay. The inlay transforms the small box to a beautiful simple yet feminine jewelry box. There is room for one or two ring inlays in the small box, however the box is perfect with one inlay inside and additional room for other jewels.;inlays;</p><p></p><p>:jewelbox:The Jewelbox is a smaller version of our iconic The Bookbox, and with an added ring inlay. The way we keep and store our jewellery is important to us, and our classic Jewelbox has long been one of our most popular storage boxes, The Jewelbox is both modern and classic; inspired by traditions but created with today’s needs for tacitle and simple storage solutions in mind. The Jewelbox is elegant and compared to traditional jewellery boxes, it is simple in look and feel – a true Danish design object, made for the modern, cool, yet feminine woman.<br/><br/>The leather Jewelbox is made from surplus materials from exclusive members of the furniture and fashion industry. The leather is always of the highest standard and either aniline or semi-aniline. It comes in shades of black, grey and cognac, but as we use surplus materials not two batches are the same. That is the beauty of working with surplus materials – the small variations.<br/><br/>In addition to our surplus material Jewelbox, we have launched a collection of colourful jewellery boxes, more fashionable than our classics. Because of the use of colour, it is impossible to use surplus materials and we have therefore created it in Danish semi-aniline Oekotex leather. The two colourways were made by Note Design Studio and selected  for the Jewelbox by the talented colour expert Margrethe Odgaard.<br/></p><p>The fabric Jewelbox is Limited Edition runs, with fabrics chosen by a designer who we admire.
