This archival, hand-sewn journal 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 and discovered in Nag Hammadi, Egypt in 1945. Its endbands are brown and yellow cotton, and its bookmark is calfskin. The book is half-leathered in lightly worn dark brown, and its boards are wrapped in paper that was hand-marbled at il Papiro, in Florence, Italy.
The talisman in this book is a fragment of an Arabic coin, minted c. 1400 and re-discovered on the beaches of Spain. Most liklely, this coin pre-dates Gutenburg and comes from a time when all books were hand-copied by scribes. It is right at home here, and you will be, too.
This book is roughly 6 x 9” and contains a few more than 150 blank pages.
