This journal is finely bound in purple Harmatan goat skin with a back-pared leather decorative design element inset on the front cover and hand sewn end caps of silk thread. The journal text block, end sheets and paste-downs are of high quality, textured Bugra papers, in pale pink, purple and green. The book snugs into a divided magnetized clamshell covered in Balinese cotton Ikat with a double leather beaded inset, with a separate compartment for the Venetian glass pen and room to accommodate an additional writing instrument.
