This archival, hand-sewn journal/sketchbook is made from 100 gsm, white Hahnemühle Ingres mouldmade paper from Dassel, Germany, made on the same site since 1584. It is sewn with Irish linen thread in the linked stitch pattern that was developed by the ancient Copts. This stitch allows the book to lay open easily at any page.
The book’s endbands and bookmark are goatskin. Its boards are wrapped in a 1962 map of Europe, and the spine is covered in Badalassi Olmo Italian calfskin that was processed at Rocky Mountain Leather Supply in Sandy, Utah.
The talisman in this book is a Celtic shield from a mid-20th-century brooch.
