This archival, hand-sewn journal/sketchbook is made from 100 gsm, custard-toned 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 orange satin ribbon.  Its spine is covered pigskin, and its boards are wrapped in paper that was hand-marbled at il Papiro in Florence, Italy.

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 1976, 10 peso coin from Republica Argentina featuring the “Sol de Mayo,” images of the sun with an olive branch.  This book is already about renewal, regeneration, starting over. Vamos!

This book is roughly 6.5 x 10” with more than 150 blank, custard-colored pages.
