Rachel Ward-Sale

Rachel is a bookbinder at Bookbinders of Lewes, working from the bindery at Star Brewery in the centre of Lewes. She brings skill and care to the full range of hand bookbinding work the studio undertakes — from one-off commissions to repairs and restoration.

The bindery has been producing bespoke hand-bound work since 1992, and Rachel's practice sits within that tradition — attentive to materials, structure, and the particular needs of each piece that comes through the door.
