Courtship

$95.00

This archival, hand-sewn journal/sketchbook is made from 80 gsm Mohawk Superfine archival paper stitched with Irish linen thread in the linked pattern that was developed by the ancient Copts. This stitch allows the book to lay open easily at any page.

This book’s endbands are French goatskin, and its bookmark is calfskin.  Its boards are wrapped in a washi paper that was hand silk-screened in a Japanese factory where kimono silks are printed,  and its spine is covered in Badalassi Italian calfskin that was processed at Rocky Mountain Leather Supply in Sandy, Utah. It was hand-gilded, using tools carved by Kevin Noakes in Rustington, West Sussex, England.

The talisman in this book is a contemporary cameo.
