This archival, hand-sewn journal/sketchbook is made from 100 gsm, blue-green 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 blue and white cotton, and its bookmark is blue goatskin. Its spine is covered hand-skived goatskin, and its boards are wrapped in a 1955 blueprint from the Babcock and Wilcox Power Generation Company in Akron, OH, diagraming a crosstube burner.
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 vintage robot clothing button featuring a rendering of a robot. Pretty much, this is what the 21st Century looked like in the imagination of 20th Century designers. Sketch in the 22nd Century to give them a laugh.
This book is roughly 6.5 x 10” with more than 150 blank blue-green pages.
