Five Pence
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 and bookmark are Alran French goatskin. Its spine is covered in Dubletta book cloth from the Netherlands, and its boards are wrapped in paper that was hand-marbled by Jemma Lewis in Whiltshire, England.
The talisman in this book is a 1997 five pence coin from England. The five pence coin, which features a likeness of Queen Elizabeth II on its obverse, replaced the shilling in 1971 preparation for decimalization of English currency.
