Cruise
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 was developed by 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 blue satin ribbon. Its spine is covered in French goatskin, and its boards are wrapped in a 1947 map of the Atlantic Ocean.
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 late 20th Century Holland America cruise ship medallion. Holland America is actually an old passenger line, founded in Roterdam in 1873 as the Nederlandsch-Amerikaansche Stoomvaart Maatschappij. The more things change, the more they stay the same.
This book is approximately 6 x 9” with a few more than 150 blank pages.
