innerwords ... Cyanotype Print Journal with Heavy Watercolour Paper (Folksy130)

Exploring your inner worlds with innerwords If you have the words for your inner work, then you need innerwords ... This journal is covered with an original Cyanotype print that features gorgeous daisies and sprinkled with gold ink. The fore edges of the book are decorated with lovely sparkly turquoise ink. The endpapers are a gorgeous blue and white Japanese Chiyogami paper. “Chiyo” means 1,000 generations and "gami” means paper. Originally the design was applied to handmade kozo paper with wood blocks, but today most chiyogami is produced with silkscreen techniques. (Thank you Wikipedia). The pages are gorgeous, heavy-weight watercolour paper. This would make the most perfect journal or sketchbook. The book was bound with French link stitch on tapes, a medieval bookbinding technique that revolutionised how books were bound in French monasteries. This method creates a book whose spines are strong and flexible, and also incredibly beautiful, even before the covers are put on. (Thank you to my teacher, Moneeza Khan, for the background information!) The book measures 10 inches by 6.5 inches. There are a lot of pages, the book is well over an inch thick, and I think that this will become a beloved companion to whichever lucky person receives it. All books are sent Royal Mail 1st Class Signed For.
