Northern Lights
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 are blue and white cotton, and its bookmark is navy blue goatskin. Its spine is covered in French goatskin from Rocky Mountain Leather Supply in Utah, and its boards are wrapped in paper that was hand marbled by by Regina and Daniel St. John at Chena River Marblers in Amherst, MA.
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 Norwegian 5 Krone coin. Norway is one of the best vantage points for viewing the Northern Lights in winter.
This book is approximately 6x9” with a few more than 150 blank pages.
