Ukraine
This archival, hand-sewn journal/sketchbook is made from 100 gsm, custard 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 linen, and its bookmark is blue satin ribbon. Its spine is covered split French goatskin, and its boards are wrapped in a decommissioned nautical chart showing navigational notations in the Black Sea along the coast of Ukraine.
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 an early 20th Century Honorary Associate’s badge from the Royal Life Saving Society in England. Slava Ukraini!
This book is roughly 6.5 x 10” with a few more than 150 blank pages.
