This archival journal/sketchbook is made from 120 gsm Arches (“wet media”) hand-laid, all cotton rag paper from France. It is sewn with Irish linen thread in the linked stitch pattern that was developed by the ancient Copts and discovered in Nag Hammadi, Egypt in 1945. This stitch allows the book to lay open at any page.
Its endbands are goatskin, and its bookmark is pigskin. The spine is covered in waxed pigskin, and its boards are wrapped in washi paper that was hand silk-screened in Japan in a factory where kimono silks are printed.
The talisman in this book is a 1986 medallion given to those who contributed to the restoration of the Statue of Liberty. Designed by French sculptor Frédéric Auguste Bartholdi with an internal structure collaborated on by Gustave Eiffel, the statue was given to the United States in 1886 to commemorate the friendship between France and the USA
