Fine handmade hand-crafted book, order traditionally bound with sewn binding, in soft warm cowhide. Perfect for diary, journal, sketchbook.

A fine hand-made blank book. I do traditional Smyth-sewn bindings, with hand-sewn signatures. The page block has two multicolored woven silk headbands. The covers are thin strong 3-ply plywod, wrapped with soft warm cream-colored deerskin. This is a perfect book for keeping a journal or diary, or doing small sketches or doodles. It is a delight to feel in your hands, and will be a delight to use.
