Bamboo
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 book cloth from the Netherlands, and its boards are wrapped in paper that was hand-marbled by Betty Caponi in Monte San Giusto, Italy.
The talisman in this book is a vintage bone mahjong tile, marked 8 bamboo. Mahjong was developed during the Qing Dynasty in China in the late 1880s. The word “mahjong” means “sparrow” in a Southern Chinese dialect; the clicking of the tiles can sound like the chirping of the bird.
