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 dates back to the ancient Copts. This stitch allows the book to lay open easily at any page.

 This book’s endbands are blue and gold silk, and its bookmark is dark blue goatskin.  This book is wrapped in paper that was hand-marbled by Renato Crepaldi in Sao Paulo, Brazil.

 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 journal is an early 20th Century souvenir medallion from Paris, featuring the Eiffel Tower.  Paris is the most-visited city in the world, and that is just counting actual travelers.  If only they could count the hours spend daydreaming of wandering its streets and sitting in its cafes. 

This book is roughly 6 x 9” with a few more than 150 blank pages.
