Marmor Paperie - A5 Marbled Journal - Suminagashi on Linen.
This hard-back A5 journal is made with original hand-marbled half-linen bookcloth. The bookcloth was marbled using the oldest form of marbling, the beautiful Japanese art of suminagashi. This technique uses plain water as the 'canvas', whose currents twist and shape the floating ink to give it a distinctively fluid, smokey look.
Each book contains 240 pages (120 leaves) of lovely ivory-toned Italian paper, with a choice of lined, blank or dot grid paper. The bookcloth makes the binding extremely durable and the ink is light-fast so the design won't fade. All our marbled papers and books are carefully handmade in Marmor Paperie's south London studio. The books are constructed by hand using thick greyboard for sturdy, quality covers.
These one-of-a-kind journals make a striking, original gift for list-makers, artists and bullet journalers.
