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 red, green and yellow silk, and its bookmark is grosgrain ribbon.  Its spine is covered goatskin from Rocky Mountain Leather Supply in Utah, and its boards are wrapped in paper that was hand-marbled by Betty Caponi in Monte San Giusto, 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 journal is a poker chip from a floating casino in Paris, France.  Luck is essential, but Louis Pasteur famously said “chance favors the prepared mind.”  Get ready for it.
