Cloth Cover Coffee Table Book Printing
The custom cloth cover coffee table book is a great choice that exudes warmth and style. We offer a wide range of fabric colors and textures, complemented by many finishing options—from foil stamping and debossing to screen printing for simpler, line-based images. Do you want to incorporate a full-color photo or design on a cloth cover? No problem! We can deboss a frame into the cloth, then paste your printed image for a stunning, layered effect. It's a creative way to marry traditional materials with contemporary design.
As this is specialist work and rather exclusive, please contact us and one of our binding experts will be happy to discuss your needs.
Faux Leather Coffee Table Book Cover Options
We also offer imitation leather and padded imitation leather covers for books which need a traditional, superior, and luxury treatment.
The imitation leather is cruelty-free and very realistic. It has a similar appearance to traditional vellum and calfskin products. We can apply skilled decorative techniques such as tooling and carving, gold leaf, embossing, “dentelle” and “pebbling”. You may choose to have your hardcover book fully or partially imitation leather-bound. With a partially imitation leather-bound book, we can make the remainder of marbled paper, high-quality cloth, or soft-touch laminated paper, for example. As this is specialist work and rather exclusive, please contact us and one of our binding experts will be happy to discuss your needs.
Large-Size Coffee Table Book Printing
For maximum visual impact, a large-format coffee table book is the way to go. The biggest coffee table book we can print is 12.5" x 16.5". So, your biggest, boldest photographs and artworks can shine in all their glory. Thanks to our preferred sewn hardcover binding, the pages lie flat, letting readers appreciate every detail across a full two-page spread. Plus, you'll find that a grand format not only makes a statement on your coffee table but also doubles as an elegant part of your interior design.
Gold Gilded Edges Coffee Table Book Printing
Want your coffee table book to truly shine? Add gold gilded or painted edges. Gold gilded edges are the most popular choice in the printing and binding industry. You might also opt for other metallic gilded finishes like silver, rose gold, or bronze to align with your overall design. Metallic gilded edges or painted edges are also perfect for special editions, boutique publications, or high-end gift collections.
Coffee Table Book Printing with Slipcase
A custom slipcase offers practical protection and transforms your coffee table book into a true showpiece. Think of it as a stylish “jacket” that shields your book from dust while amplifying its shelf presence. Whether you choose a simple, elegant design or opt for matching cloth or printed graphics to coordinate with the book itself, a slipcase makes a bold aesthetic statement and elevates the perceived value of your publication.
Best Binding for Coffee Table Books
As coffee table books have an integral aesthetic purpose, we recommend “sewn hardcover” as our preferred binding style. This binding achieves high-end results which always impress. You can open the book flat with no damage to the spine, too, which makes it ideal for appreciative browsing. With sewn hardcover binding, we organize the interior pages into signatures which are then printed, cut, sewn, and glued into a hard casing covered by a printed sheet that forms the cover. This binding is the most durable.
If you're interested in premium binding options, be sure to check out our hardcover book printing service. For a lighter option, you might prefer our paperback book printing.
Free File Checking Service
We provide a free manual file checking service to ensure your files meet printing requirements. Our experts will check key details such as file dimensions, bleed settings, color mode, and resolution, etc. If we find any issues, we will provide recommendations to help you correct them before printing.
We also have a detailed guide on how to check and prepare your files for printing. You can find it here.

QinPrinting Reviews
From start to finish, Jane was incredibly informative and helpful.
Also great communication.
My books arrived, and are beautiful!
Jane was prompt and had GREAT attention to detail were exceptional. Most of my emails were answered within 24 hours, and Jane went above and beyond by sending pictures, samples, and clear explanations to help me understand all the technical aspects of book printing. She even reviewed my proofs thoroughly and pointed out a few important adjustments I needed to make to my PDF files.
Shipping was faster than expected, and when I compared the final copies from Qin Printing with those from IngramSpark, Qin's quality was far superior. The materials looked more polished; paper is higher quality, and the print was crisper. Each book was carefully wrapped.
I ended up saving 75% of my printing budget, and communicating in English was no issue at all. It felt like Jane cared about the project as much as I did. I can't recommend her and Qin Printing enough. Thank you so much for helping bring my book to life!
The books came out beautiful, the print quality is absolutely flawless, the paper is fantastically solid and the laminated soft touch cover is straight up luxury. The book looks and feels 110% professional and it's a glorious to hold.
It even arrived about a month earlier than was forecast so i could deliver them in time for Christmas, even my European/Australian orders!
Common Coffee Table Book Sizes
A coffee table book is an oversized hardcover bound book. Coffee table books are designed for presentation. They should impress, intrigue, and catch the eye. While the exact dimensions depend on your content, how many photographs and illustrations you include, and the layout and orientation, most coffee table books are large, printed on premium art paper, and bound in hardcovers. A landscape-oriented collection of black-and-white or full-color art photography may be larger than an anthology of your verse; and a memoir, family history, or travelogue may better suit a large portrait format. Here's a handy coffee table book size chart. Explore the possibilities to help you to decide which size would best suit your project.
| Square Sizes | 8" x 8" | 8.5" x 8.5" | 9" x 9" | 10" x 10" | 10.5" x 10.5" | 11" x 11" | 12" x 12" |

Smaller sizes—even down to 6" x 9" are convenient if you need to enhance a more intimate interior or ‘top off' an elegant stack of grander volumes. Larger sizes make a stronger impression. But you're not limited to the suggestions above. At QinPrinting, we specialize in custom coffee table book printing in any size or format you wish. Only remember that extensive customization incurs higher costs and slower turnaround times because there's more pre-press and setup involved. But for your dream project, or as part of an overall interior décor renovation, the added investment could be worthwhile. It's always your decision.
