Village Baker
This archival, hand-sewn journal/sketchbook is made from 100 gsm, white Hahnemühle Ingres mouldmade paper from Dassel, Germany, made on the same site since 1584. It is sewn with Irish linen thread in the linked stitch pattern that was developed by the ancient Copts. This stitch allows the book to lay open easily at any page.
The book’s endbands are blue and white linen, and its bookmark is goatskin. Its boards are wrapped washi paper that was hand silk-screened in Japan in a factory where kimono silks are printed, and its spine is covered in Alran French goatskin that was processed at Rocky Mountain Leather Supply in Utah.
The talisman in this book is a worker’s appreciation token from the Jacquet Brossard commercial bakery in France. Its obverse reads, “en homage de bons et loyaux services.” Jacquet introduced sandwich bread to France in 1885. They actually did invent the literal, French version of “the best thing since sliced bread.”
