About
Hidden storage has always walked a fine line between functional and obvious. The best concealment doesn't announce itself, which is exactly where these false books land.
Craighill's volumes look like they belong on a technical bookshelf, complete with foil-printed covers and premium textured paper that feels substantial in hand. The spine reads "Always Be Knurling" or "Tool and Die: The Lifecycle of a Machinist" or "That'll Leave a Mark: A Comprehensive Guide to Laser Safety"—titles specific enough to seem real, vague enough that nobody questions them. Inside, a magnetic closure keeps the hardcover secure, while black microsuede lines the cavity. The internal space measures 5.75" x 3.75" x 1.125", enough for documents, cash, or small valuables that need to disappear into plain sight.
At just over a pound, these feel weighty enough to handle like actual books. The die-cut paper pages add to the illusion. They're for people who appreciate the irony of hiding something in the most obvious place possible, and who value design enough to want their storage to look good doing it.
