Founded in London by Charles Ede in 1947 with the aim of making beautifully produced books available to the general reader, The Folio Society has become a hallmark of exceptional publishing. The publisher is distinguished by its meticulous attention to detail, from commissioning unique illustrations by notable artists to selecting high-quality paper, typography, and binding materials. Each book is produced as a hardback edition, complete with a protective slipcase, reflecting a deep commitment to both aesthetic quality and durability. Originally a membership-based club, the company transitioned to a direct-to-consumer model in 2016, selling exclusively through its website.
