Amber Waves
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 spine are made from pigskin, and its bookmark French goatskin. 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 1956 United States wheat penny. Nine million acres of the United States are devoted to growing wheat; small wonder that “America the Beautiful” reference’s the country’s “amber waves of grain”; the entire Chesapeake Bay watershed area is equal in size to the wheat fields of America.
