Old Turk
This archival, hand-sewn journal/sketchbook is made from 100 gsm, white Hahnemühle Ingres mouldmade paper from Dassel, Germany, made on the same site since 1584. It is sewn with Irish linen thread in the linked stitch pattern that was developed by the ancient Copts. This stitch allows the book to lay open easily at any page.
The book’s endbands and bookmark are goatskin. Its boards are wrapped in paper that was hand-marbled by Betty Caponi in Monte San Giusto, Italy, and its spine is covered in Alran French goatskin that was processed at Rocky Mountain Leather Supply in Utah.
The talisman in this journal is a coin from the Ottoman Empire, a 15th century Ottoman relic. The 15th century was a prosperous period of expansion for the Ottoman Empire as it was governed by a succession of powerful sultans.
