Pin-zu
This archival, hand-sewn journal/sketchbook is made from 100 gsm, antique white 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 green and yellow cotton, and its bookmark is red satin ribbon. Its spine is covered in top grain goatskin, and its boards are wrapped in hand silk-screened paper from Japan that was decorated in a factory where kimono fabrics are printed.
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 1 pin-zu mahjong tile. Also, known as the Red Dragon, this tile is roughly equivalent to the Ace of Spades, propitious in the right hands. Be just. Be precise. Use your gift of insight.
This book is roughly 6.5 x 10” with a few more than 150 blank pages.
