Joy Luck
This archival, hand-sewn journal/sketchbook is made from 100 gsm, custard-colored Hahnemühle Ingres mouldmade paper from Germany, sewn with Irish linen thread in the linked stitch pattern that dates back at least to the Ancient Copts. It allows the book to lay open easily to any page.
This book’s endbands are red and yellow cotton, and its bookmark is yellow satin ribbon. The book’s spine is covered in black leather, and its boards are wrapped in paper that was hand-silk screened in Japan.
Treasure binding began with monks in the 6th Century who would encrust volumes with jewels. During the Renaissance, there was a resurgence in treasure binding. This is a contemporary revival of the treasure binding in which a lucky charm has been embedded in the cover of this book.
The talisman in this book is a mid-20th Century good luck charm with the inscription, “May Good Luck Always Accompany the Bearer.” May it, indeed.
This book is roughly 6.5 x 10” with more than 150 blank pages.
